FunFam 134: Low-density lipoprotein RecePtor related

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 6 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 TermAnnotationsEvidence
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.
2 P98164 (/ISS) Q7Z5C0 (/ISS)
Regulation of endocytosis GO:0030100
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of endocytosis.
2 A8JTM7 (/IMP) Q95SN5 (/IMP)
Regulation of cell migration GO:0030334
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cell migration.
2 O01768 (/IGI) Q04833 (/IGI)
Chitin-based cuticle development GO:0040003
Synthesis and deposition of a chitin-based noncellular, hardened, or membranous secretion from an epithelial sheet. An example of this process is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
2 A8JTM7 (/IMP) Q95SN5 (/IMP)
Regulation of adult chitin-containing cuticle pigmentation GO:0048082
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of establishment of the adult pattern of pigmentation in the cuticle of an organism.
2 A8JTM7 (/IMP) Q95SN5 (/IMP)
Retinoid metabolic process GO:0001523
The chemical reactions and pathways involving retinoids, any member of a class of isoprenoids that contain or are derived from four prenyl groups linked head-to-tail. Retinoids include retinol and retinal and structurally similar natural derivatives or synthetic compounds, but need not have vitamin A activity.
1 P98164 (/TAS)
Neural tube closure GO:0001843
The last step in the formation of the neural tube, where the paired neural folds are brought together and fuse at the dorsal midline.
1 P98164 (/ISS)
Nematode larval development GO:0002119
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the nematode larva over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Nematode larval development begins with the newly hatched first-stage larva (L1) and ends with the end of the last larval stage (for example the fourth larval stage (L4) in C. elegans). Each stage of nematode larval development is characterized by proliferation of specific cell lineages and an increase in body size without alteration of the basic body plan. Nematode larval stages are separated by molts in which each stage-specific exoskeleton, or cuticle, is shed and replaced anew.
1 Q04833 (/IMP)
Secondary heart field specification GO:0003139
The process that results in the delineation of a specific region of the lateral mesoderm into the area which will form the majority of the mesodermal component of the right ventricle, arterial pole (outflow tract) and venous pole (inflow tract).
1 P98164 (/ISS)
Outflow tract septum morphogenesis GO:0003148
The process in which the anatomical structures of the outflow tract septum are generated and organized. The outflow tract septum is a partition in the outflow tract.
