The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_4_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
Clathrin heavy-chain terminal domain

FunFam 9: Clathrin heavy chain

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 1 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
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
1 P34574 (/IPI)

There are 7 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
Receptor-mediated endocytosis GO:0006898
An endocytosis process in which cell surface receptors ensure specificity of transport. A specific receptor on the cell surface binds tightly to the extracellular macromolecule (the ligand) that it recognizes; the plasma-membrane region containing the receptor-ligand complex then undergoes endocytosis, forming a transport vesicle containing the receptor-ligand complex and excluding most other plasma-membrane proteins. Receptor-mediated endocytosis generally occurs via clathrin-coated pits and vesicles.
1 P34574 (/IMP)
Protein localization GO:0008104
Any process in which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a specific location.
1 P34574 (/IMP)
Determination of adult lifespan GO:0008340
The control of viability and duration in the adult phase of the life-cycle.
1 P34574 (/IGI)
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.
1 P34574 (/IMP)
Cortical actin cytoskeleton organization GO:0030866
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of actin-based cytoskeletal structures in the cell cortex, i.e. just beneath the plasma membrane.
1 P34574 (/IMP)
Apical protein localization GO:0045176
Any process in which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, apical regions of the cell.
1 P34574 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of clathrin-dependent endocytosis GO:2000370
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of clathrin-mediated endocytosis.
1 P34574 (/IMP)

There are 9 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
Cytoplasm GO:0005737
All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Plasma membrane GO:0005886
The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Cell cortex GO:0005938
The region of a cell that lies just beneath the plasma membrane and often, but not always, contains a network of actin filaments and associated proteins.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane GO:0009898
The leaflet the plasma membrane that faces the cytoplasm and any proteins embedded or anchored in it or attached to its surface.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Apical plasma membrane GO:0016324
The region of the plasma membrane located at the apical end of the cell.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Endocytic vesicle GO:0030139
A membrane-bounded intracellular vesicle formed by invagination of the plasma membrane around an extracellular substance. Endocytic vesicles fuse with early endosomes to deliver the cargo for further sorting.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Cytoplasmic vesicle GO:0031410
A vesicle found in the cytoplasm of a cell.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Clathrin-coated endocytic vesicle GO:0045334
A clathrin-coated, membrane-bounded intracellular vesicle formed by invagination of the plasma membrane around an extracellular substance.
1 P34574 (/IDA)
Mitotic spindle GO:0072686
A spindle that forms as part of mitosis. Mitotic and meiotic spindles contain distinctive complements of proteins associated with microtubules.
