FunFam 10: Envoplakin a

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
Structural molecule activity GO:0005198
The action of a molecule that contributes to the structural integrity of a complex or its assembly within or outside a cell.
1 Q92817 (/TAS)
Cadherin binding GO:0045296
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with cadherin, a type I membrane protein involved in cell adhesion.
1 Q92817 (/HDA)

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
Epidermis development GO:0008544
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the epidermis over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The epidermis is the outer epithelial layer of an animal, it may be a single layer that produces an extracellular material (e.g. the cuticle of arthropods) or a complex stratified squamous epithelium, as in the case of many vertebrate species.
1 Q92817 (/TAS)
Peptide cross-linking GO:0018149
The formation of a covalent cross-link between or within protein chains.
1 Q92817 (/IDA)
Peptide cross-linking GO:0018149
The formation of a covalent cross-link between or within protein chains.
1 Q9D952 (/ISO)
Keratinocyte differentiation GO:0030216
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a keratinocyte.
1 Q92817 (/IDA)
Keratinocyte differentiation GO:0030216
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a keratinocyte.
1 Q9D952 (/ISO)
Cornification GO:0070268
A type of programmed cell death that occurs in the epidermis, morphologically and biochemically distinct from apoptosis. It leads to the formation of corneocytes, i.e. dead keratinocytes containing an amalgam of specific proteins (e.g., keratin, loricrin, SPR and involucrin) and lipids (e.g., fatty acids and ceramides), which are necessary for the function of the cornified skin layer (mechanical resistance, elasticity, water repellence and structural stability).

There are 9 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
Cytosol GO:0005829
The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.
2 K7EKI0 (/IDA) Q92817 (/IDA)
Intermediate filament cytoskeleton GO:0045111
Cytoskeletal structure made from intermediate filaments, typically organized in the cytosol as an extended system that stretches from the nuclear envelope to the plasma membrane. Some intermediate filaments run parallel to the cell surface, while others traverse the cytosol; together they form an internal framework that helps support the shape and resilience of the cell.
2 K7EKI0 (/IDA) Q92817 (/IDA)
Cornified envelope GO:0001533
A type of plasma membrane that has been modified through addition of distinct intracellular and extracellular components, including ceramide, found in cornifying epithelial cells (corneocytes).
1 Q92817 (/IDA)
Cornified envelope GO:0001533
A type of plasma membrane that has been modified through addition of distinct intracellular and extracellular components, including ceramide, found in cornifying epithelial cells (corneocytes).

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.
