GO:0003824 | catalytic activity | molecular_function | Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic.

GO:0005515 | protein binding | molecular_function | Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators] |
GO:0006506 | GPI anchor biosynthetic process | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor that attaches some membrane proteins to the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. The phosphatidylinositol group is linked via the C-6 hydroxyl residue of inositol to a carbohydrate chain which is itself linked to the protein via an ethanolamine phosphate group, its amino group forming an amide linkage with the C-terminal carboxyl of the protein. Some GPI anchors have variants on this canonical linkage. [GOC:go_curators, ISBN:0198547684] |
GO:0000506 | glycosylphosphatidylinositol-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (GPI-GnT) complex | cellular_component | An enzyme complex that catalyzes the transfer of GlcNAc from UDP-GlcNAc to an acceptor phosphatidylinositol, the first step in the production of GPI anchors for cell surface proteins. The complex contains PIG-A, PIG-C, PIG-H, PIG-Q, PIG-P, and DPM2 in human, and Eri1p, Gpi1p, Gpi2p, Gpi15p, Gpi19p, and Spt14p in budding yeast. [GOC:kp, GOC:rb, PMID:10944123, PMID:15163411] |
GO:0005789 | endoplasmic reticulum membrane | cellular_component | The lipid bilayer surrounding the endoplasmic reticulum. [GOC:mah] |
