FunFam 35: AQuaPorin or aquaglyceroporin related

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 2 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
Channel activity GO:0015267
Enables the energy-independent facilitated diffusion, mediated by passage of a solute through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel. Stereospecificity is not exhibited but this transport may be specific for a particular molecular species or class of molecules.
3 Q19949 (/IDA) Q21473 (/IDA) Q8IG23 (/IDA)
Water channel activity GO:0015250
Transport systems of this type enable facilitated diffusion of water (by an energy-independent process) by passage through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel without evidence for a carrier-mediated mechanism.

There are 6 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
Glycerol transport GO:0015793
The directed movement of glycerol into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. Glycerol is 1,2,3-propanetriol, a sweet, hygroscopic, viscous liquid, widely distributed in nature as a constituent of many lipids.

Innate immune response GO:0045087
Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens.
2 Q19949 (/IGI) Q8IG23 (/IGI)
Innate immune response GO:0045087
Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens.
2 Q19949 (/IMP) Q8IG23 (/IMP)
Defense response to Gram-negative bacterium GO:0050829
Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a Gram-negative bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism.
2 Q19949 (/IGI) Q8IG23 (/IGI)
Defense response to Gram-negative bacterium GO:0050829
Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a Gram-negative bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism.
2 Q19949 (/IMP) Q8IG23 (/IMP)
Water transport GO:0006833
The directed movement of water (H2O) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Basolateral plasma membrane GO:0016323
The region of the plasma membrane that includes the basal end and sides of the cell. Often used in reference to animal polarized epithelial membranes, where the basal membrane is the part attached to the extracellular matrix, or in plant cells, where the basal membrane is defined with respect to the zygotic axis.
