The process of binding or confining metal ions such that they are separated from other components of a biological system.

The directed movement of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine into, out of, within or between cells. N-acetylglucosamine is a substance composed of N-acetylglucosamine, a common structural unit of oligosaccharides, in glycosidic linkage with uridine diphosphate.

Combining with an extracellular or intracellular messenger to initiate a change in cell activity, and spanning to the membrane of either the cell or an organelle.

regulation of organismal physiological process

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of an organismal physiological process, the processes pertinent to the function of an organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs.

The directed movement of UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine into, out of, within or between cells. UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine is a substance composed of N-acetylgalactosamine, a common structural unit of oligosaccharides, in glycosidic linkage with uridine diphosphate.

nicotinic acetylcholine-activated cation-selective channel activity

RNA splicing factor activity, transesterification mechanism

An activity which binds RNA and functions to assist splicing of substrate RNA(s) by facilitating the formation and stabilization of a catalytic conformation in which the splice junctions of the RNA(s) to be spliced are positioned for a transesterification reaction that occurs between two sites within the RNA(s) to be spliced.

Mediates the transfer of a signal from the outside to the inside of a cell by means other than the introduction of the signal molecule itself into the cell.

Combining with an extracellular or intracellular messenger to initiate a change in cell activity.

The mediation of the endocytosis of plasma glycoproteins from which the terminal sialic acid residue on their complex carbohydrate moieties has been removed; recognizes the terminal galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine units; the complex of receptor and ligand is internalized and transported to a sorting organelle where disassociation occurs, the receptor being recycled to the cell membrane.
