FunFam 31: Tetraspanin

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
Integrin binding GO:0005178
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an integrin.
1 O55158 (/IPI)
Integrin binding GO:0005178
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an integrin.
1 Q8R3G9 (/ISO)
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).
1 P19075 (/IPI)

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
Spermatogenesis GO:0007283
The process of formation of spermatozoa, including spermatocytogenesis and spermiogenesis.
1 Q8R3G9 (/IDA)
Regulation of gene expression GO:0010468
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression. Gene expression is the process in which a gene's coding sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA or circRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA or circRNA into protein. Protein maturation is included when required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form.
1 Q8R3G9 (/IDA)
Negative regulation of blood coagulation GO:0030195
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of blood coagulation.
1 O55158 (/IDA)
Negative regulation of blood coagulation GO:0030195
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of blood coagulation.
1 Q8R3G9 (/ISO)

There are 2 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
Cell surface GO:0009986
The external part of the cell wall and/or plasma membrane.
1 Q8R3G9 (/IDA)
Extracellular exosome GO:0070062
A vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm.
