FunFam 169: Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein

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 5 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Compound eye morphogenesis GO:0001745
The morphogenetic process in which the anatomical structures of the compound eye are generated and organized. The adult compound eye is a precise assembly of 700-800 ommatidia. Each ommatidium is composed of 20 cells, identified by cell type and position. An example of compound eye morphogenesis is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
3 A1Z9D7 (/IMP) Q95V09 (/IMP) Q9NHE9 (/IMP)
Nervous system development GO:0007399

3 A1Z9D7 (/IMP) Q95V09 (/IMP) Q9NHE9 (/IMP)
Long-term memory GO:0007616
The memory process that deals with the storage, retrieval and modification of information a long time (typically weeks, months or years) after receiving that information. This type of memory is typically dependent on gene transcription regulated by second messenger activation.
3 A1Z9D7 (/IMP) Q95V09 (/IMP) Q9NHE9 (/IMP)
Regulation of compound eye pigmentation GO:0048076
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of establishment of a pattern of pigment in the compound eye.
3 A1Z9D7 (/IMP) Q95V09 (/IMP) Q9NHE9 (/IMP)
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)
Segment polarity determination GO:0007367
Division of the 14 parasegments of the embryo into anterior and posterior compartments; exemplified by the actions of the segment polarity gene products.
1 A1Z9D7 (/IMP)
Imaginal disc-derived wing margin morphogenesis GO:0008587
The process in which the anatomical structures of the imaginal disc-derived wing margin are generated and organized. The wing margin is a strip of cells in the third instar disc at the boundary between the presumptive dorsal and ventral surfaces of the wing blade.
1 A1Z9D7 (/IMP)
Sterol transport GO:0015918
The directed movement of sterols into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. Sterols are steroids with one or more hydroxyl groups and a hydrocarbon side-chain in the molecule.

1 Q04833 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of multicellular organism growth GO:0040018
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of growth of an organism to reach its usual body size.
1 Q04833 (/IMP)
Ecdysis, collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle GO:0042395
The shedding of the old collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle fragments during the molting cycle. Examples of this process are found in invertebrates.

Canonical Wnt signaling pathway GO:0060070
The series of molecular signals initiated by binding of a Wnt protein to a frizzled family receptor on the surface of the target cell, followed by propagation of the signal via beta-catenin, and ending with a change in transcription of target genes. In this pathway, the activated receptor signals via downstream effectors that result in the inhibition of beta-catenin phosphorylation, thereby preventing degradation of beta-catenin. Stabilized beta-catenin can then accumulate and travel to the nucleus to trigger changes in transcription of target genes.
