FunFam 55: Carboxypeptidase

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
Carboxypeptidase activity GO:0004180
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of the terminal or penultimate peptide bond at the C-terminal end of a peptide or polypeptide.
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Serine-type carboxypeptidase activity GO:0004185
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of a peptide bond not more than three residues from the C-terminus of a polypeptide chain by a catalytic mechanism that involves a catalytic triad consisting of a serine nucleophile that is activated by a proton relay involving an acidic residue (e.g. aspartate or glutamate) and a basic residue (usually histidine).
1 P10619 (/IMP)
Enzyme activator activity GO:0008047
Binds to and increases the activity of an enzyme.
1 P10619 (/TAS)

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
Proteolysis GO:0006508
The hydrolysis of proteins into smaller polypeptides and/or amino acids by cleavage of their peptide bonds.
1 P10619 (/IDA)
Glycosphingolipid metabolic process GO:0006687
The chemical reactions and pathways involving glycosphingolipids, any compound with residues of sphingoid and at least one monosaccharide.
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Intracellular protein transport GO:0006886
The directed movement of proteins in a cell, including the movement of proteins between specific compartments or structures within a cell, such as organelles of a eukaryotic cell.
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Regulation of protein stability GO:0031647
Any process that affects the structure and integrity of a protein, altering the likelihood of its degradation or aggregation.
1 P10619 (/IMP)
Neutrophil degranulation GO:0043312
The regulated exocytosis of secretory granules containing preformed mediators such as proteases, lipases, and inflammatory mediators by a neutrophil.
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Regulation of chaperone-mediated autophagy GO:1904714
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of chaperone-mediated autophagy.
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Negative regulation of chaperone-mediated autophagy GO:1904715
Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of chaperone-mediated autophagy.

There are 9 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
Nucleoplasm GO:0005654
That part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus.
2 P10619 (/IDA) X6R8A1 (/IDA)
Intracellular membrane-bounded organelle GO:0043231
Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, bounded by a single or double lipid bilayer membrane and occurring within the cell. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, and vesicles. Excludes the plasma membrane.
2 P10619 (/IDA) X6R8A1 (/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 P10619 (/TAS)
Lysosome GO:0005764
A small lytic vacuole that has cell cycle-independent morphology and is found in most animal cells and that contains a variety of hydrolases, most of which have their maximal activities in the pH range 5-6. The contained enzymes display latency if properly isolated. About 40 different lysosomal hydrolases are known and lysosomes have a great variety of morphologies and functions.
1 P10619 (/NAS)
Endoplasmic reticulum GO:0005783
The irregular network of unit membranes, visible only by electron microscopy, that occurs in the cytoplasm of many eukaryotic cells. The membranes form a complex meshwork of tubular channels, which are often expanded into slitlike cavities called cisternae. The ER takes two forms, rough (or granular), with ribosomes adhering to the outer surface, and smooth (with no ribosomes attached).
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Membrane GO:0016020
A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it an attached to it.
1 P10619 (/HDA)
Azurophil granule lumen GO:0035578
The volume enclosed by the membrane of an azurophil granule, a primary lysosomal granule found in neutrophil granulocytes that contains a wide range of hydrolytic enzymes and is released into the extracellular fluid.
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Lysosomal lumen GO:0043202
The volume enclosed within the lysosomal membrane.
1 P10619 (/TAS)
Extracellular exosome GO:0070062
A vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm.
