Enables

This protein enables 4 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
amine transmembrane transporter activitymolecular functionEnables the transfer of amines, including polyamines, from one side of a membrane to the other. Amines are organic compounds that are weakly basic in character and contain an amino (-NH2) or substituted amino group. [GOC:mtg_transport, ISBN:0198506732, ISBN:0815340729]
organic cation transmembrane transporter activitymolecular functionEnables the transfer of organic cations from one side of a membrane to the other. Organic cations are atoms or small molecules with a positive charge that contain carbon in covalent linkage. [GOC:ai, GOC:mtg_transport, ISBN:0815340729]
carnitine transmembrane transporter activitymolecular functionEnables the transfer of carnitine across a membrane. Carnitine is a compound that participates in the transfer of acyl groups across the inner mitochondrial membrane. [GOC:ai]
spermidine transmembrane transporter activitymolecular functionEnables the transfer of spermidine, N-(3-aminopropyl)-1,4-diaminobutane, from one side of a membrane to the other. [GOC:ai, RHEA:35039]

Located In

This protein is located in 3 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
cytosolcellular componentThe part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. [GOC:hjd, GOC:jl]
plasma membranecellular componentThe membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. [ISBN:0716731363]
membranecellular componentA lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it and attached to it. [GOC:dos, GOC:mah, ISBN:0815316194]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 11 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
monoatomic ion transportbiological processThe directed movement of a monoatomic ion into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. Monatomic ions (also called simple ions) are ions consisting of exactly one atom. [GOC:ai]
spermatogenesisbiological processThe developmental process by which male germ line stem cells self renew or give rise to successive cell types resulting in the development of a spermatozoa. [GOC:jid, ISBN:9780878933846, PMID:28073824, PMID:30990821]
single fertilizationbiological processThe union of male and female gametes to form a zygote. [GOC:ems, GOC:mtg_sensu]
organic cation transportbiological processThe directed movement of organic cations into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. Organic cations are atoms or small molecules with a positive charge which contain carbon in covalent linkage. [GOC:ai]
amine transportbiological processThe directed movement of amines, including polyamines, organic compounds containing one or more amino groups, into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. [GOC:ai, ISBN:0198506732]
carnitine transportbiological processThe directed movement of carnitine into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. Carnitine is a compound that participates in the transfer of acyl groups across the inner mitochondrial membrane. [GOC:ai]
cell differentiationbiological processThe cellular developmental process in which a relatively unspecialized cell, e.g. embryonic or regenerative cell, acquires specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize a specific cell. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate and its subsequent development to the mature state. [ISBN:0198506732]
flagellated sperm motilitybiological processThe directed, self-propelled movement of a cilium (aka flagellum) that contributes to the movement of a flagellated sperm. [GO_REF:0000060, GOC:cilia, GOC:krc, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:26680031]
acid secretionbiological processThe controlled release of acid by a cell or a tissue. [GOC:ai]
carnitine transmembrane transportbiological processThe directed movement of carnitine across a membrane. [GO_REF:0000069, GOC:pr, GOC:TermGenie]
spermidine transmembrane transportbiological processThe process in which spermidine is transported across a membrane. [GO_REF:0000069, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:15637075]
