regulation of actin polymerization and/or depolymerization

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the assembly or disassembly of actin filaments by the addition or removal of actin monomers from a filament.

saccharopine dehydrogenase (NAD+, L-lysine-forming) activity

Catalysis of the reaction: saccharopine + NAD+ + H2O = L-lysine + 2-oxoglutarate + NADH + H+.

saccharopine dehydrogenase (NADP+, L-glutamate-forming) activity

Catalysis of the reaction: N6-(L-1,3-dicarboxypropyl)-L-lysine + NADP+ + H2O = L-glutamate + 2-aminoadipate 6-semialdehyde + NADPH + H+.

An enzyme complex that contains cytochrome b/b6 and cytochrome c1.

Combining with glutamate to initiate a change in cell activity.

detection of mechanical stimulus during equilibrioception

sensory transduction of mechanical stimulus during equilibrioception

The series of events during equilibrioception in which a sensory mechanical stimulus is received and converted into a molecular signal. During equilibrioception, mechanical stimuli may be in the form of input from pressure receptors or from the labyrinth system of the inner ears.

Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + selenide + H2O = AMP + selenophosphate + phosphate.

metabotropic glutamate, GABA-B-like receptor activity

The group of G-protein coupled receptors that are structurally/functionally related to the metabotropic glutamate receptors.

detection of mechanical stimulus during sensory perception

sensory transduction of mechanical stimulus during sensory perception

The series of events in which a sensory mechanical stimulus is received and converted into a molecular signal.

Catalysis of the reaction: 7,8-dihydrobiopterin + NADP+ = sepiapterin + NADPH + H+.

The series of events required for an organism to receive a touch stimulus, convert it to a molecular signal, and recognize and characterize the signal. The perception of touch in animals is mediated by mechanoreceptors in the skin and mucous membranes and is the sense by which contact with objects gives evidence as to certain of their qualities. Different types of touch can be perceived (for example, light, coarse, pressure and tickling) and the stimulus may be external or internal (e.g. the feeling of a full stomach).
