FunFam 145: Galectin

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
Galactoside binding GO:0016936
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any glycoside in which the sugar group is galactose.
3 O45904 (/IDA) P36573 (/IDA) Q18625 (/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).
2 O45904 (/IPI) Q8I4A4 (/IPI)

There are 0 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.

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
Plasma membrane GO:0005886
The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
7 G5EGB1 (/HDA) I2HAG1 (/HDA) Q09581 (/HDA) Q20684 (/HDA) Q8I4A4 (/HDA) Q8I4A5 (/HDA) Q95ZI4 (/HDA)
Membrane raft GO:0045121
Any of the small (10-200 nm), heterogeneous, highly dynamic, sterol- and sphingolipid-enriched membrane domains that compartmentalize cellular processes. Small rafts can sometimes be stabilized to form larger platforms through protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions.
3 P36573 (/HDA) Q18625 (/HDA) Q20684 (/HDA)
Collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle extracellular matrix GO:0060102
A collagen and cuticulin-based noncellular, multilayered structure that is synthesized by an underlying ectodermal (hypodermal) cell layer. The cuticle serves essential functions in body morphology, locomotion, and environmental protection. An example of this component is found in Caenorhabditis elegans.
