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:

"
Formin, FH2 domain

FunFam 20: Formin-like protein

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
Actin binding GO:0003779
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with monomeric or multimeric forms of actin, including actin filaments.
3 Q9C6S1 (/ISS) Q9FF14 (/ISS) Q9FF15 (/ISS)
Microtubule binding GO:0008017
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with microtubules, filaments composed of tubulin monomers.
1 Q9C6S1 (/IDA)
Actin filament binding GO:0051015
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an actin filament, also known as F-actin, a helical filamentous polymer of globular G-actin subunits.
1 Q9C6S1 (/IDA)

There are 4 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
Microsporogenesis GO:0009556
The process in which the microsporocyte undergoes meiosis, giving rise to four haploid microspores.
1 Q9C6S1 (/IMP)
Actin nucleation GO:0045010
The initial step in the formation of an actin filament, in which actin monomers combine to form a new filament. Nucleation is slow relative to the subsequent addition of more monomers to extend the filament.
1 Q9FF14 (/IDA)
Barbed-end actin filament capping GO:0051016
The binding of a protein or protein complex to the barbed (or plus) end of an actin filament, thus preventing the addition, exchange or removal of further actin subunits.
1 Q9FF14 (/IDA)
Actin filament bundle assembly GO:0051017
The assembly of actin filament bundles; actin filaments are on the same axis but may be oriented with the same or opposite polarities and may be packed with different levels of tightness.
1 Q9C6S1 (/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
Spindle GO:0005819
The array of microtubules and associated molecules that forms between opposite poles of a eukaryotic cell during mitosis or meiosis and serves to move the duplicated chromosomes apart.
1 Q9C6S1 (/IDA)
Phragmoplast GO:0009524
Fibrous structure (light microscope view) that arises between the daughter nuclei at telophase and within which the initial partition (cell plate), dividing the mother cell in two (cytokinesis), is formed. Appears at first as a spindle connected to the two nuclei, but later spreads laterally in the form of a ring. Consists of microtubules.
1 Q9C6S1 (/IDA)
Preprophase band GO:0009574
A dense band of microtubules, 1-3 pm wide, that appears just beneath the cell membrane before the start of cell division in the cells of higher plants. It precedes the onset of prophase and then disappears as mitosis begins, yet it somehow determines the plane of orientation of the new cell plate forming in late telophase and marks the zone of the parental cell wall where fusion with the growing cell plate ultimately occurs.
