FunFam 176: Galectin

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
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
2 Q05315 (/IPI) Q9UHV8 (/IPI)
Lysophospholipase activity GO:0004622
Catalysis of the reaction: 2-lysophosphatidylcholine + H2O = glycerophosphocholine + a carboxylate.
1 Q9UHV8 (/TAS)
Lactose binding GO:0030395
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with lactose, a disaccharide of glucose and galactose, the carbohydrate of milk.
1 A8MUM7 (/IDA)
Identical protein binding GO:0042802
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an identical protein or proteins.
1 Q05315 (/IPI)
Cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in apoptotic process GO:0097153
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which the sulfhydryl group of a cysteine residue at the active center acts as a nucleophile, and contributing to the apoptotic process.

1 Q05315 (/IMP)
Regulation of T cell cytokine production GO:0002724
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of T cell cytokine production.
1 Q05315 (/IMP)

The chemical reactions and pathways involving phospholipids, any lipid containing phosphoric acid as a mono- or diester.
1 Q9UHV8 (/TAS)
Multicellular organism development GO:0007275
The biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a multicellular organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult).
1 Q05315 (/TAS)
Regulation of activated T cell proliferation GO:0046006
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of activated T cell proliferation.
1 Q05315 (/IMP)
T cell apoptotic process GO:0070231

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
Cytoplasm GO:0005737
All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
1 Q9UHV8 (/IDA)
Cytosol GO:0005829
The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.
1 Q05315 (/IDA)
Nuclear matrix GO:0016363

1 Q9UHV8 (/IDA)
Collagen-containing extracellular matrix GO:0062023
An extracellular matrix consisting mainly of proteins (especially collagen) and glycosaminoglycans (mostly as proteoglycans) that provides not only essential physical scaffolding for the cellular constituents but can also initiate crucial biochemical and biomechanical cues required for tissue morphogenesis, differentiation and homeostasis. The components are secreted by cells in the vicinity and form a sheet underlying or overlying cells such as endothelial and epithelial cells.
