FunFam 74: RHo Guanine nucleotide exchange Factor

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
Rho guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity GO:0005089
Stimulates the exchange of guanyl nucleotides associated with a GTPase of the Rho family. Under normal cellular physiological conditions, the concentration of GTP is higher than that of GDP, favoring the replacement of GDP by GTP in association with the GTPase.
1 Q22354 (/IDA)
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).
1 Q22354 (/IPI)
Rho GTPase binding GO:0017048
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with Rho protein, any member of the Rho subfamily of the Ras superfamily of monomeric GTPases. Proteins in the Rho subfamily are involved in relaying signals from cell-surface receptors to the actin cytoskeleton.

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
Cell morphogenesis GO:0000902
The developmental process in which the size or shape of a cell is generated and organized.
1 Q22354 (/IMP)
Rho protein signal transduction GO:0007266
A series of molecular signals within the cell that are mediated by a member of the Rho family of proteins switching to a GTP-bound active state.
1 Q22354 (/IDA)
Embryonic body morphogenesis GO:0010172
The process in which the anatomical structures of the embryonic soma are generated and organized.
1 Q22354 (/IMP)
Negative regulation of neuron projection development GO:0010977
Any process that decreases the rate, frequency or extent of neuron projection development. Neuron projection development is the process whose specific outcome is the progression of a neuron projection over time, from its formation to the mature structure. A neuron projection is any process extending from a neural cell, such as axons or dendrites (collectively called neurites).
1 Q22354 (/IMP)
Regulation of locomotion GO:0040012
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of locomotion of a cell or organism.
1 Q22354 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II GO:0045944
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of transcription from an RNA polymerase II promoter.
1 Q22354 (/IDA)
Activation of GTPase activity GO:0090630
Any process that initiates the activity of an inactive GTPase through the replacement of GDP by GTP.
1 Q22354 (/IDA)

There are 3 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
Axon GO:0030424
The long process of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses, usually away from the cell body to the terminals and varicosities, which are sites of storage and release of neurotransmitter.
1 Q22354 (/IDA)
Neuron projection GO:0043005
A prolongation or process extending from a nerve cell, e.g. an axon or dendrite.
1 Q22354 (/IDA)
Cell body GO:0044297
The portion of a cell bearing surface projections such as axons, dendrites, cilia, or flagella that includes the nucleus, but excludes all cell projections.
