FunFam 34: Interleukin 17B

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
Cytokine activity GO:0005125
Functions to control the survival, growth, differentiation and effector function of tissues and cells.
3 Q9UHF5 (/TAS) Q9UHF5 (/TAS) Q9UHF5 (/TAS)
Signaling receptor binding GO:0005102
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with one or more specific sites on a receptor molecule, a macromolecule that undergoes combination with a hormone, neurotransmitter, drug or intracellular messenger to initiate a change in cell function.
1 Q9QXT6 (/ISO)
Cytokine activity GO:0005125
Functions to control the survival, growth, differentiation and effector function of tissues and cells.
1 Q9QXT6 (/IDA)

There are 4 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
Immune response GO:0006955
Any immune system process that functions in the calibrated response of an organism to a potential internal or invasive threat.
3 Q9UHF5 (/TAS) Q9UHF5 (/TAS) Q9UHF5 (/TAS)
Cell-cell signaling GO:0007267
Any process that mediates the transfer of information from one cell to another. This process includes signal transduction in the receiving cell and, where applicable, release of a ligand and any processes that actively facilitate its transport and presentation to the receiving cell. Examples include signaling via soluble ligands, via cell adhesion molecules and via gap junctions.
3 Q9UHF5 (/TAS) Q9UHF5 (/TAS) Q9UHF5 (/TAS)
Neutrophil chemotaxis GO:0030593
The directed movement of a neutrophil cell, the most numerous polymorphonuclear leukocyte found in the blood, in response to an external stimulus, usually an infection or wounding.
1 Q9QXT6 (/ISO)
Positive regulation of cytokine production involved in inflammatory response GO:1900017
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cytokine production involved in inflammatory response.
1 Q9QXT6 (/IDA)

There are 0 GO terms relating to "cellular component"
