FunFam 10: Chitin synthase 6

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 8 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.
2 C8V173 (/IMP) C8V173 (/IMP)
Chitin synthase activity GO:0004100
Catalysis of the reaction: UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine +
2 C8V173 (/RCA) C8V173 (/RCA)
Microfilament motor activity GO:0000146
Catalysis of movement along a microfilament, coupled to the hydrolysis of a nucleoside triphosphate (usually ATP).
1 Q9TW28 (/ISS)
ATP binding GO:0005524
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
1 Q9TW28 (/ISS)
ATPase activity GO:0016887
Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate + 2 H+. May or may not be coupled to another reaction.
1 Q9TW28 (/ISS)
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.
1 Q9TW28 (/IDA)
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.
1 Q9TW28 (/ISS)
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 Q9TW28 (/IDA)

There are 10 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
Chitin biosynthetic process GO:0006031
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of chitin, a linear polysaccharide consisting of beta-(1->4)-linked N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues.
2 C8V173 (/RCA) C8V173 (/RCA)
Cell tip growth GO:0009932
Growth that occurs specifically at the tip of a cell.
2 C8V173 (/IGI) C8V173 (/IGI)
Cell tip growth GO:0009932
Growth that occurs specifically at the tip of a cell.
2 C8V173 (/IMP) C8V173 (/IMP)
Hyphal growth GO:0030448
Growth of fungi as threadlike, tubular structures that may contain multiple nuclei and may or may not be divided internally by septa, or cross-walls.
2 C8V173 (/IMP) C8V173 (/IMP)
Fungal-type cell wall organization GO:0031505
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of the fungal-type cell wall.
2 C8V173 (/IMP) C8V173 (/IMP)
Conidium formation GO:0048315
The process of producing non-motile spores, called conidia, via mitotic asexual reproduction in higher fungi. Conidia are haploid cells genetically identical to their haploid parent. They are produced by conversion of hyphal elements, or are borne on sporogenous cells on or within specialized structures termed conidiophores, and participate in dispersal of the fungus.
2 C8V173 (/IMP) C8V173 (/IMP)
Hypotonic response GO:0006971
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of detection of, or exposure to, a hypotonic environment, i.e. an environment with a lower concentration of solutes than the organism or cell.
1 Q9TW28 (/IMP)
Hyperosmotic response GO:0006972
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of detection of, or exposure to, a hyperosmotic environment, i.e. an environment with a higher concentration of solutes than the organism or cell.
1 Q9TW28 (/IMP)
Pseudopodium organization GO:0031268
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a pseudopodium, a temporary protrusion or retractile process of a cell, associated with cellular movement.

Regulation of Rac protein signal transduction GO:0035020
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of Rac protein signal transduction.

2 C8V173 (/IDA) C8V173 (/IDA)
Cell septum GO:0030428
A structure composed of peptidoglycan and often chitin in addition to other materials. It usually forms perpendicular to the long axis of a cell or hypha and grows centripetally from the cell wall to the center of the cell and often functions in the compartmentalization of a cell into two daughter cells.
