Catalysis of the reaction: UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + peptide = UDP + N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-peptide.

A transamidation reaction that results in the cleavage of the polypeptide chain and the concomitant transfer of the GPI anchor to the newly formed carboxy-terminal amino acid of the anchored protein. The cleaved C-terminal contains the C-terminal GPI signal sequence of the newly synthesized polypeptide chain.

The chemical reactions involving selenocysteine, an essential component of glutathione peroxidase and some other proteins.

activation of the terminal complement cascade

The activation of the membrane attack complex components of the complement cascade which can result in death of a target cell through cytolysis.

Any process in an organism that results in the killing of its own cells or those of another organism, including in some cases the death of the other organism. Killing here refers to the induction of death in one cell by another cell, not cell-autonomous death due to internal or other environmental conditions.

Any process mediated by an organism that results in the death of cells in the host organism. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction.

eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F complex

eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 complex

The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F complex is composed of eIF4E, eIF4A and eIF4G; it is involved in the recognition of the mRNA cap, ATP-dependent unwinding of the 5'-terminal secondary structure and recruitment of the mRNA to the ribosome.

The 43S preinitiation complex is the 40S ribosomal subunit plus eIF1A, eIF3, and eIF2-GTP-bound to the initiator tRNA.

The directed killing of a target cell by an immune cell.

The 48S initiation complex is composed of the 40S ribosomal subunit, the initiator tRNA, and the mRNA.

Catalysis of the release of an N-terminal amino acid, preferentially alanine, from an oligopeptide or polypeptide.

Catalysis of the release of an N-terminal amino acid, preferentially alanine, from a wide range of peptides, amides and arylamides.
