FunFam 498: Transcription factor

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"

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
RNA polymerase II proximal promoter sequence-specific DNA binding GO:0000978
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific upstream regulatory DNA sequence (transcription factor recognition sequence or binding site) located in the proximal promoter of a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II. The proximal promoter is in cis with and relatively close to the core promoter.
2 P22035 (/IDA) P22035 (/IDA)
DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific GO:0000981
A protein or a member of a complex that interacts selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence (sometimes referred to as a motif) within the regulatory region of a RNA polymerase II-transcribed gene to modulate transcription. Regulatory regions include promoters (proximal and distal) and enhancers. Genes are transcriptional units.
2 P22035 (/IDA) P22035 (/IDA)
DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific GO:0000981
A protein or a member of a complex that interacts selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence (sometimes referred to as a motif) within the regulatory region of a RNA polymerase II-transcribed gene to modulate transcription. Regulatory regions include promoters (proximal and distal) and enhancers. Genes are transcriptional units.
2 P22035 (/IMP) P22035 (/IMP)
RNA polymerase II transcription regulator recruiting activity GO:0001135
The function of binding to an RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) transcription regulator and recruiting it to the general transcription machinery complex in order to modulate transcription initiation.
2 P22035 (/IDA) P22035 (/IDA)
RNA polymerase II transcription regulator recruiting activity GO:0001135
The function of binding to an RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) transcription regulator and recruiting it to the general transcription machinery complex in order to modulate transcription initiation.

1 Q5A683 (/IMP)
Adenine biosynthetic process GO:0046084
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of adenine, 6-aminopurine, one of the five main bases found in nucleic acids and a component of numerous important derivatives of its corresponding ribonucleoside, adenosine.
1 Q5A683 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of purine nucleotide biosynthetic process by transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter GO:0100036
Any transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter process that positively_regulates purine nucleotide biosynthetic process

There are 1 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
Nucleus GO:0005634
A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.
