FunFam 1: Nucleoporin NUP170

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 6 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
Chromatin binding GO:0003682
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with chromatin, the network of fibers of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that make up the chromosomes of the eukaryotic nucleus during interphase.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
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 P38181 (/IPI) P38181 (/IPI)
Structural constituent of nuclear pore GO:0017056
The action of a molecule that contributes to the structural integrity of the nuclear pore complex, a protein-lined channel in the nuclear envelope that allows the transfer of macromolecules.
2 P38181 (/IGI) P38181 (/IGI)
Structural constituent of nuclear pore GO:0017056
The action of a molecule that contributes to the structural integrity of the nuclear pore complex, a protein-lined channel in the nuclear envelope that allows the transfer of macromolecules.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
Protein-containing complex binding GO:0044877
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a macromolecular complex.
2 P38181 (/IDA) P38181 (/IDA)
Promoter-specific chromatin binding GO:1990841
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a section of chromatin that is associated with gene promoter sequences of DNA.

There are 9 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
Chromatin silencing GO:0006342
Repression of transcription by altering the structure of chromatin, e.g. by conversion of large regions of DNA into an inaccessible state often called heterochromatin.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
Nucleocytoplasmic transport GO:0006913
The directed movement of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
2 P38181 (/IC) P38181 (/IC)
Chromosome segregation GO:0007059
The process in which genetic material, in the form of chromosomes, is organized into specific structures and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. In eukaryotes, chromosome segregation begins with the condensation of chromosomes, includes chromosome separation, and ends when chromosomes have completed movement to the spindle poles.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
Gene silencing GO:0016458
Any process carried out at the cellular level that results in either long-term transcriptional repression via action on chromatin structure or RNA mediated, post-transcriptional repression of gene expression.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
Nucleosome positioning GO:0016584
Ordering of successions of nucleosomes into regular arrays so that nucleosomes are positioned at defined distances from one another.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
Telomere tethering at nuclear periphery GO:0034398
The process in which a telomere is maintained in a specific location at the nuclear periphery.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
Protein localization to nuclear inner membrane GO:0036228
A process in which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a location within the nuclear inner membrane.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)
Nuclear pore complex assembly GO:0051292
The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a nuclear pore complex.
2 P38181 (/IGI) P38181 (/IGI)
Heterochromatin assembly involved in chromatin silencing GO:0070869
Any process that results in the assembly of chromatin into heterochromatin and contributes to chromatin silencing.
2 P38181 (/IMP) P38181 (/IMP)

There are 2 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
Nuclear pore GO:0005643
Any of the numerous similar discrete openings in the nuclear envelope of a eukaryotic cell, where the inner and outer nuclear membranes are joined.
2 P38181 (/IDA) P38181 (/IDA)
Nuclear pore inner ring GO:0044611
A subcomplex of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) that forms the inner rings of the core scaffold, a lattice-like structure that gives the NPC its shape and strength. In S. cerevisiae, the two inner rings are each composed of Nup192p, Nup188p, Nup170p and Nup157p. In vertebrates, the two inner rings are each composed of Nup205, Nup188 and Nup155. Components are arranged in 8-fold symmetrical 'spokes' around the central transport channel. A single 'spoke', can be isolated and is sometimes referred to as the Nup170 complex.
