FunFam 497: Guanine nucleotide exchange factor UNC-73A

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
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.
3 C4ALD5 (/IDA) O61528 (/IDA) Q7KPP4 (/IDA)
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.
3 C4ALD5 (/IPI) O61528 (/IPI) Q7KPP4 (/IPI)
Rac guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity GO:0030676
Stimulates the exchange of guanyl nucleotides associated with a GTPase of the Rac 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.

Neuron migration GO:0001764
The characteristic movement of an immature neuron from germinal zones to specific positions where they will reside as they mature.
3 C4ALD5 (/IMP) O61528 (/IMP) Q7KPP4 (/IMP)
Neuron migration GO:0001764
The characteristic movement of an immature neuron from germinal zones to specific positions where they will reside as they mature.
3 C4ALD5 (/TAS) O61528 (/TAS) Q7KPP4 (/TAS)
Nematode larval development GO:0002119
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the nematode larva over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Nematode larval development begins with the newly hatched first-stage larva (L1) and ends with the end of the last larval stage (for example the fourth larval stage (L4) in C. elegans). Each stage of nematode larval development is characterized by proliferation of specific cell lineages and an increase in body size without alteration of the basic body plan. Nematode larval stages are separated by molts in which each stage-specific exoskeleton, or cuticle, is shed and replaced anew.
3 C4ALD5 (/NAS) O61528 (/NAS) Q7KPP4 (/NAS)
Mesodermal cell migration GO:0008078
The orderly movement of mesodermal cells from one site to another.
3 C4ALD5 (/TAS) O61528 (/TAS) Q7KPP4 (/TAS)
Embryo development ending in birth or egg hatching GO:0009792
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of an embryo over time, from zygote formation until the end of the embryonic life stage. The end of the embryonic life stage is organism-specific and may be somewhat arbitrary; for mammals it is usually considered to be birth, for insects the hatching of the first instar larva from the eggshell.
3 C4ALD5 (/NAS) O61528 (/NAS) Q7KPP4 (/NAS)
Cell migration GO:0016477
The controlled self-propelled movement of a cell from one site to a destination guided by molecular cues. Cell migration is a central process in the development and maintenance of multicellular organisms.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of development of the vulva. Vulval development is the process whose specific outcome is the progression of the egg-laying organ of female and hermaphrodite nematodes over time, from its formation to the mature structure. In nematodes, the vulva is formed from ventral epidermal cells during larval stages to give rise to a fully formed vulva in the adult.
