FunFam 16888: C4b-binding protein alpha chain

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 3 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
2 P04003 (/IPI) P08607 (/IPI)
RNA binding GO:0003723
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an RNA molecule or a portion thereof.
1 P04003 (/IDA)
Structural molecule activity GO:0005198
The action of a molecule that contributes to the structural integrity of a complex or its assembly within or outside a cell.
1 O08569 (/NAS)

There are 7 GO terms relating to "biological process"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Organelle organization GO:0006996
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of an organelle within a cell. An organelle is an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton. Excludes the plasma membrane.
1 O08569 (/NAS)
Binding of sperm to zona pellucida GO:0007339
The process in which the sperm binds to the zona pellucida glycoprotein layer of the egg. The process begins with the attachment of the sperm plasma membrane to the zona pellucida and includes attachment of the acrosome inner membrane to the zona pellucida after the acrosomal reaction takes place.
1 Q7TSY4 (/IMP)
Acrosome reaction GO:0007340
The discharge, by sperm, of a single, anterior secretory granule following the sperm's attachment to the zona pellucida surrounding the oocyte. The process begins with the fusion of the outer acrosomal membrane with the sperm plasma membrane and ends with the exocytosis of the acrosomal contents into the egg.
1 O08569 (/NAS)
Regulation of complement activation GO:0030449
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of complement activation.
1 P04003 (/TAS)
Positive regulation of protein catabolic process GO:0045732
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of a protein by the destruction of the native, active configuration, with or without the hydrolysis of peptide bonds.
1 P04003 (/IDA)
Negative regulation of complement activation, classical pathway GO:0045959
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of complement activation by the classical pathway.
1 P04003 (/IDA)
Regulation of opsonization GO:1903027
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of opsonization.
1 P04003 (/IC)

There are 6 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Acrosomal matrix GO:0043159
A structural framework, or 'dense core' at the interior of an acrosome. May regulate the distribution of hydrolases within the acrosome and their release during the acrosome reaction.
2 O08569 (/IDA) Q7TSY4 (/IDA)
Extracellular region GO:0005576
The space external to the outermost structure of a cell. For cells without external protective or external encapsulating structures this refers to space outside of the plasma membrane. This term covers the host cell environment outside an intracellular parasite.
1 P04003 (/NAS)
Extracellular space GO:0005615
That part of a multicellular organism outside the cells proper, usually taken to be outside the plasma membranes, and occupied by fluid.
1 P04003 (/IDA)
Plasma membrane GO:0005886
The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
1 P04003 (/TAS)
Other organism cell GO:0044216
A cell of a secondary organism with which the first organism is interacting.
1 P04003 (/IDA)
Blood microparticle GO:0072562
A phospholipid microvesicle that is derived from any of several cell types, such as platelets, blood cells, endothelial cells, or others, and contains membrane receptors as well as other proteins characteristic of the parental cell. Microparticles are heterogeneous in size, and are characterized as microvesicles free of nucleic acids.
