FunFam 52: Metalloendopeptidase

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 3 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
Metalloendopeptidase activity GO:0004222
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which water acts as a nucleophile, one or two metal ions hold the water molecule in place, and charged amino acid side chains are ligands for the metal ions.
2 P25723 (/IDA) Q9VC47 (/IDA)
Metalloendopeptidase activity GO:0004222
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which water acts as a nucleophile, one or two metal ions hold the water molecule in place, and charged amino acid side chains are ligands for the metal ions.
1 P25723 (/IMP)
Collagen binding GO:0005518
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with collagen, a group of fibrous proteins of very high tensile strength that form the main component of connective tissue in animals. Collagen is highly enriched in glycine (some regions are 33% glycine) and proline, occurring predominantly as 3-hydroxyproline (about 20%).

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Imaginal disc-derived wing vein morphogenesis GO:0008586
The process in which anatomical structures of the veins on an imaginal disc-derived wing are generated and organized.
5 P25723 (/IMP) Q23995 (/IMP) Q24132 (/IMP) Q95RA3 (/IMP) Q9VC47 (/IMP)
Defasciculation of motor neuron axon GO:0007415
Separation of a motor axon away from a bundle of axons known as a fascicle.
4 Q23995 (/IMP) Q24132 (/IMP) Q95RA3 (/IMP) Q9VC47 (/IMP)
Motor neuron axon guidance GO:0008045
The process in which the migration of an axon growth cone of a motor neuron is directed to a specific target site in response to a combination of attractive and repulsive cues.
4 Q23995 (/IMP) Q24132 (/IMP) Q95RA3 (/IMP) Q9VC47 (/IMP)
Protein processing GO:0016485
Any protein maturation process achieved by the cleavage of a peptide bond or bonds within a protein. Protein maturation is the process leading to the attainment of the full functional capacity of a protein.
2 P25723 (/IDA) Q9VC47 (/IDA)
Positive regulation of BMP signaling pathway GO:0030513
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of BMP signaling pathway activity.
2 P25723 (/IGI) Q9VC47 (/IGI)
Positive regulation of activin receptor signaling pathway GO:0032927
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the activity of any activin receptor signaling pathway.
2 P25723 (/IDA) Q9VC47 (/IDA)
Proteolysis GO:0006508
The hydrolysis of proteins into smaller polypeptides and/or amino acids by cleavage of their peptide bonds.
1 P25723 (/IDA)
Maternal specification of dorsal/ventral axis, oocyte, soma encoded GO:0007313
Polarization of the oocyte along the dorsal-ventral axis, by a gene product encoded by somatic cells. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
1 P25723 (/IMP)
Amnioserosa formation GO:0007378
Formation of the amnioserosa, an epithelium that occupies a hole in the embryonic dorsal epidermis. This occurs by the transformation of a narrow strip of cells at the dorsal midline of the blastoderm from columnar to squamous cells, accompanied by a lateral shift.

Amnioserosa formation GO:0007378
Formation of the amnioserosa, an epithelium that occupies a hole in the embryonic dorsal epidermis. This occurs by the transformation of a narrow strip of cells at the dorsal midline of the blastoderm from columnar to squamous cells, accompanied by a lateral shift.
1 P25723 (/NAS)
Axon guidance GO:0007411
The chemotaxis process that directs the migration of an axon growth cone to a specific target site in response to a combination of attractive and repulsive cues.
1 Q9VC47 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of BMP signaling pathway GO:0030513
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of BMP signaling pathway activity.
1 P25723 (/IDA)
R8 cell fate specification GO:0045464
The process in which a cell becomes capable of differentiating autonomously into an R8 cell in an environment that is neutral with respect to the developmental pathway; upon specification, the cell fate can be reversed.
