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:

"
Transducin (heterotrimeric G protein), gamma chain

FunFam 9: Regulator of G-protein signaling 11

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 4 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
GTPase activator activity GO:0005096
Binds to and increases the activity of a GTPase, an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP.
3 O94810 (/TAS) O94810 (/TAS) Q9Z2H1 (/TAS)
GTPase activity GO:0003924
Catalysis of the reaction: GTP + H2O = GDP + phosphate.

GO Term Annotations Evidence
G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway GO:0007186
A series of molecular signals that proceeds with an activated receptor promoting the exchange of GDP for GTP on the alpha-subunit of an associated heterotrimeric G-protein complex. The GTP-bound activated alpha-G-protein then dissociates from the beta- and gamma-subunits to further transmit the signal within the cell. The pathway begins with receptor-ligand interaction, or for basal GPCR signaling the pathway begins with the receptor activating its G protein in the absence of an agonist, and ends with regulation of a downstream cellular process, e.g. transcription. The pathway can start from the plasma membrane, Golgi or nuclear membrane (PMID:24568158 and PMID:16902576).
3 O94810 (/TAS) O94810 (/TAS) Q9Z2H1 (/TAS)
Regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway GO:0008277
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway.
2 O94810 (/TAS) O94810 (/TAS)

There are 4 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.
2 O94810 (/TAS) O94810 (/TAS)
Protein-containing complex GO:0032991
A stable assembly of two or more macromolecules, i.e. proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates or lipids, in which at least one component is a protein and the constituent parts function together.
2 O94810 (/IDA) O94810 (/IDA)
Protein-containing complex GO:0032991
