Involved In

This protein is involved in 14 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway, coupled to cyclic nucleotide second messengerbiological processA G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway in which the signal is transmitted via the activation or inhibition of a nucleotide cyclase activity and a subsequent change in the concentration of a cyclic nucleotide. [GOC:mah, GOC:signaling, ISBN:0815316194]
adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathwaybiological processA G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway in which the signal is transmitted via the activation of adenylyl cyclase activity which results in an increase in the intracellular concentration of cyclic AMP (cAMP). This pathway is negatively regulated by phosphodiesterase, which cleaves cAMP and terminates the signaling. [GOC:dph, GOC:mah, GOC:signaling, GOC:tb, ISBN:0815316194]
UV protectionbiological processAny process in which an organism or cell protects itself from ultraviolet radiation (UV), which may also result in resistance to repeated exposure to UV. [GOC:jl, GOC:ml]
positive regulation of protein kinase A signalingbiological processAny process that increases the rate, frequency, or extent of protein kinase A signaling. PKA signaling is the series of reactions, mediated by the intracellular serine/threonine kinase protein kinase A, which occurs as a result of a single trigger reaction or compound. [GOC:BHF, GOC:dph, GOC:tb]
sensory perception of painbiological processThe series of events required for an organism to receive a painful stimulus, convert it to a molecular signal, and recognize and characterize the signal. Pain is medically defined as the physical sensation of discomfort or distress caused by injury or illness, so can hence be described as a harmful stimulus which signals current (or impending) tissue damage. Pain may come from extremes of temperature, mechanical damage, electricity or from noxious chemical substances. This is a neurological process. [GOC:curators]
negative regulation of tumor necrosis factor productionbiological processAny process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of tumor necrosis factor production. [GOC:mah, PMID:10891884, PMID:15560120]
intracellular signal transductionbiological processThe process in which a signal is passed on to downstream components within the cell, which become activated themselves to further propagate the signal and finally trigger a change in the function or state of the cell. [GOC:bf, GOC:jl, GOC:signaling, ISBN:3527303782]
melanin biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of melanins, pigments largely of animal origin. High molecular weight polymers of indole quinone, they are irregular polymeric structures and are divided into three groups: allomelanins in the plant kingdom and eumelanins and phaeomelanins in the animal kingdom. [GOC:curators]
pigmentationbiological processThe accumulation of pigment in an organism, tissue or cell, either by increased deposition or by increased number of cells. [GOC:jl]
positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase IIbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of transcription from an RNA polymerase II promoter. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH]
UV-damage excision repairbiological processA DNA repair process that is initiated by an endonuclease that introduces a single-strand incision immediately 5' of a UV-induced damage site. UV-damage excision repair acts on both cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and pyrimidine-pyrimidone 6-4 photoproducts (6-4PPs). [GOC:mah, PMID:9619100]
positive regulation of protein kinase C signalingbiological processAny process that increases the frequency, rate, or extent of a series of reactions, mediated by the intracellular serine/threonine kinase protein kinase C, which occurs as a result of a single trigger reaction or compound. [GOC:dph, GOC:tb]
positive regulation of feeding behaviorbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of feeding behavior. [GOC:obol]
regulation of metabolic processbiological processAny process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways within a cell or an organism. [GOC:go_curators]
