FunFam 7: Corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 1

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.

The component of the plasma membrane consisting of the gene products and protein complexes having at least some part of their peptide sequence embedded in the hydrophobic region of the membrane.
1 P34998 (/TAS)
Membrane GO:0016020
A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it an attached to it.
1 P35353 (/IDA)
Integral component of membrane GO:0016021
The component of a membrane consisting of the gene products and protein complexes having at least some part of their peptide sequence embedded in the hydrophobic region of the membrane.
1 P34998 (/IDA)
Dendrite GO:0030425
A neuron projection that has a short, tapering, morphology. Dendrites receive and integrate signals from other neurons or from sensory stimuli, and conduct nerve impulses towards the axon or the cell body. In most neurons, the impulse is conveyed from dendrites to axon via the cell body, but in some types of unipolar neuron, the impulse does not travel via the cell body.
1 P35353 (/IDA)
Intrinsic component of plasma membrane GO:0031226
The component of the plasma membrane consisting of the gene products and protein complexes having either part of their peptide sequence embedded in the hydrophobic region of the membrane or some other covalently attached group such as a GPI anchor that is similarly embedded in the membrane.
1 P34998 (/IDA)
Vesicle GO:0031982
Any small, fluid-filled, spherical organelle enclosed by membrane.
1 P35353 (/IDA)
Neuronal cell body GO:0043025
The portion of a neuron that includes the nucleus, but excludes cell projections such as axons and dendrites.
1 P35353 (/IDA)
Apical part of cell GO:0045177
The region of a polarized cell that forms a tip or is distal to a base. For example, in a polarized epithelial cell, the apical region has an exposed surface and lies opposite to the basal lamina that separates the epithelium from other tissue.
