carboxypeptidase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the hydrolysis of a single C-terminal amino acid residue from a polypeptide chain. [https://www.ebi.ac.uk/merops/about/glossary.shtml#CARBOXYPEPTIDASE]
protein bindingmolecular functionBinding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators]
cysteine-type peptidase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which the sulfhydryl group of a cysteine residue at the active center acts as a nucleophile. [GOC:mah, https://www.ebi.ac.uk/merops/about/glossary.shtml#CATTYPE]

Located In

This protein is located in 15 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
extracellular regioncellular componentThe space external to the outermost structure of a cell. For cells without external protective or external encapsulating structures this refers to space outside of the plasma membrane. This term covers the host cell environment outside an intracellular parasite. [GOC:go_curators]
extracellular spacecellular componentThat part of a multicellular organism outside the cells proper, usually taken to be outside the plasma membranes, and occupied by fluid. [ISBN:0198547684]
lysosomecellular componentA small lytic vacuole that has cell cycle-independent morphology found in most animal cells and that contains a variety of hydrolases, most of which have their maximal activities in the pH range 5-6. The contained enzymes display latency if properly isolated. About 40 different lysosomal hydrolases are known and lysosomes have a great variety of morphologies and functions. [GOC:mah, ISBN:0198506732]
endoplasmic reticulumcellular componentThe irregular network of unit membranes, visible only by electron microscopy, that occurs in the cytoplasm of many eukaryotic cells. The membranes form a complex meshwork of tubular channels, which are often expanded into slitlike cavities called cisternae. The ER takes two forms, rough (or granular), with ribosomes adhering to the outer surface, and smooth (with no ribosomes attached). [ISBN:0198506732]
endoplasmic reticulum lumencellular componentThe volume enclosed by the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum. [ISBN:0198547684]
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]
cell cortexcellular componentThe region of a cell that lies just beneath the plasma membrane and often, but not always, contains a network of actin filaments and associated proteins. [GOC:mah, ISBN:0815316194]
COPII-coated ER to Golgi transport vesiclecellular componentA vesicle with a coat formed of the COPII coat complex proteins. The COPII coat complex is formed by the Sec23p/Sec24p and the Sec13p/Sec31p heterodimers. COPII-associated vesicles transport proteins from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus (anterograde transport). [PMID:11252894, PMID:17499046, PMID:22160157, PMID:8004676, Wikipedia:COPII]
cytoplasmic vesiclecellular componentA vesicle found in the cytoplasm of a cell. [GOC:ai, GOC:mah, GOC:vesicles]
endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment membranecellular componentThe lipid bilayer surrounding any of the compartments of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi intermediate compartment system. [GOC:mah, GOC:pr, PMID:16723730]
specific granule lumencellular componentThe volume enclosed by the membrane of a specific granule, a granule with a membranous, tubular internal structure, found primarily in mature neutrophil cells. Most are released into the extracellular fluid. Specific granules contain lactoferrin, lysozyme, vitamin B12 binding protein and elastase. [GOC:bf, PMID:7334549]
intracellular membrane-bounded organellecellular componentOrganized structure of distinctive morphology and function, bounded by a single or double lipid bilayer membrane and occurring within the cell. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, and vesicles. Excludes the plasma membrane. [GOC:go_curators]
collagen-containing extracellular matrixcellular componentAn extracellular matrix consisting mainly of proteins (especially collagen) and glycosaminoglycans (mostly as proteoglycans) that provides not only essential physical scaffolding for the cellular constituents but can also initiate crucial biochemical and biomechanical cues required for tissue morphogenesis, differentiation and homeostasis. The components are secreted by cells in the vicinity and form a sheet underlying or overlying cells such as endothelial and epithelial cells. [GOC:BHF, GOC:rph, PMID:21123617]
extracellular exosomecellular componentA 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. [GOC:BHF, GOC:mah, GOC:vesicles, PMID:15908444, PMID:17641064, PMID:19442504, PMID:19498381, PMID:22418571, PMID:24009894]
ficolin-1-rich granule lumencellular componentAny membrane-enclosed lumen that is part of a ficolin-1-rich granule. [GO_REF:0000064, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:23650620]
