The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_3_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein

FunFam 28: Nestin

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 1 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
Intermediate filament binding GO:0019215
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an intermediate filament, a distinct elongated structure, characteristically 10 nm in diameter, that occurs in the cytoplasm of higher eukaryotic cells. Intermediate filaments form a fibrous system, composed of chemically heterogeneous subunits and involved in mechanically integrating the various components of the cytoplasmic space.

There are 6 GO terms relating to "biological process"

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Brain development GO:0007420
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the brain over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Brain development begins with patterning events in the neural tube and ends with the mature structure that is the center of thought and emotion. The brain is responsible for the coordination and control of bodily activities and the interpretation of information from the senses (sight, hearing, smell, etc.).
1 P86839 (/IMP)
Cranial nerve development GO:0021545
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the cranial nerves over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The cranial nerves are composed of twelve pairs of nerves that emanate from the nervous tissue of the hindbrain. These nerves are sensory, motor, or mixed in nature, and provide the motor and general sensory innervation of the head, neck and viscera. They mediate vision, hearing, olfaction and taste and carry the parasympathetic innervation of the autonomic ganglia that control visceral functions.
1 P86839 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of intermediate filament depolymerization GO:0030844
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of intermediate filament depolymerization.
1 P86839 (/ISS)
Embryonic camera-type eye development GO:0031076
The process occurring during the embryonic phase whose specific outcome is the progression of the eye over time, from its formation to the mature structure.
1 P86839 (/IMP)
Negative regulation of apoptotic process GO:0043066
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process.
1 P86839 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of neural precursor cell proliferation GO:2000179
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of neural precursor cell proliferation.
1 P86839 (/ISS)
