FunFam 144: Apoptosis-associated speck-like protein-containing...

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 2 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
Pyrin domain binding GO:0032090
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a Pyrin (PAAD/DAPIN) domain, a protein-protein interaction domain that has the same fold as the Death domain.
3 A0A2U9DQN4 (/IPI) Q9I9L7 (/IPI) Q9I9N6 (/IPI)
Cysteine-type endopeptidase activity GO:0004197
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which the sulfhydryl group of a cysteine residue at the active center acts as a nucleophile.
2 A0A2U9DQN4 (/IDA) Q9I9L7 (/IDA)

There are 5 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
Innate immune response GO:0045087
Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens.
3 A0A2U9DQN4 (/IGI) Q9I9L7 (/IGI) Q9I9N6 (/IGI)
Positive regulation of apoptotic process GO:0043065
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process.
2 A0A2U9DQN4 (/IDA) Q9I9L7 (/IDA)
Embryonic viscerocranium morphogenesis GO:0048703
The process in which the anatomical structures of the viscerocranium are generated and organized during the embryonic phase. The viscerocranium is the part of the skull comprising the facial bones.
2 A0A2U9DQN4 (/IMP) Q9I9L7 (/IMP)
Defense response to bacterium GO:0042742
Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism.
1 Q9I9N6 (/IGI)
Positive regulation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in apoptotic process GO:0043280
Any process that activates or increases the activity of a cysteine-type endopeptidase involved in the apoptotic process.
1 Q9I9N6 (/IPI)
