| molecular function |
|---|
| | GO:0019172 | | glyoxalase III activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: methylglyoxal + H2O = D-lactate. |
| | GO:0016787 | | hydrolase activity | | Catalysis of the hydrolysis of various bonds, e.g. C-O, C-N, C-C, phosphoric anhydride bonds, etc. Hydrolase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 3. |
| | GO:0016811 | | hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, in linear amides | | Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any non-peptide carbon-nitrogen bond in a linear amide. |
| | GO:0016829 | | lyase activity | | Catalysis of the cleavage of C-C, C-O, C-N and other bonds by other means than by hydrolysis or oxidation, or conversely adding a group to a double bond. They differ from other enzymes in that two substrates are involved in one reaction direction, but only one in the other direction. When acting on the single substrate, a molecule is eliminated and this generates either a new double bond or a new ring. |
| | GO:0046872 | | metal ion binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any metal ion. |
| | GO:0005515 | | protein binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules). |
| | GO:0016790 | | thiolester hydrolase activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: RCO-SR' + H2O = RCOOH + HSR'. This reaction is the hydrolysis of a thiolester bond, an ester formed from a carboxylic acid and a thiol (i.e., RCO-SR'), such as that found in acetyl-coenzyme A. |
| | GO:0008270 | | zinc ion binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with zinc (Zn) ions. |
| biological process |
|---|
| | GO:0019249 | | lactate biosynthetic process | | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of lactate, the anion of lactic acid. |
| | GO:0019243 | | methylglyoxal catabolic process to D-lactate via S-lactoyl-glutathione | | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of methylglyoxal, CH3-CO-CHO, into D-lactate via the intermediate S-lactoyl-glutathione. Glutathione is used in the first step of the pathway and then regenerated in the second step. |
| | GO:0042026 | | protein refolding | | The process carried out by a cell that restores the biological activity of an unfolded or misfolded protein, using helper proteins such as chaperones. |
| | GO:0030091 | | protein repair | | The process of restoring a protein to its original state after damage by such things as oxidation or spontaneous decomposition of residues. |
| | GO:0010447 | | response to acidic pH | | Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a pH stimulus with pH < 7. pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. |
| | GO:0051595 | | response to methylglyoxal | | Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a methylglyoxal stimulus. Methylglyoxal is a 2-oxoaldehyde derived from propanal. |
| cellular component |
|---|
| | GO:0005737 | | cytoplasm | | All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. |
| | GO:0005829 | | cytosol | | The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. |
