FunFam 1768: Interleukin-21 receptor

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 5 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
Cytokine receptor activity GO:0004896
Combining with a cytokine and transmitting the signal from one side of the membrane to the other to initiate a change in cell activity.

Transmembrane signaling receptor activity GO:0004888
Combining with an extracellular or intracellular signal and transmitting the signal from one side of the membrane to the other to initiate a change in cell activity or state as part of signal transduction.
2 Q9JHX3 (/ISO) Q9JHX3 (/ISO)
Cytokine receptor activity GO:0004896
Combining with a cytokine and transmitting the signal from one side of the membrane to the other to initiate a change in cell activity.

The change in morphology and behavior of a natural killer cell in response to a cytokine, chemokine, cellular ligand, or soluble factor.
1 Q9HBE5 (/NAS)
Interleukin-21-mediated signaling pathway GO:0038114
A series of molecular signals initiated by the binding of interleukin-21 to a receptor on the surface of a cell, and ending with regulation of a downstream cellular process, e.g. transcription.
1 Q9HBE5 (/TAS)

There are 2 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
