---|---|---|
GO:0005488 | binding | The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. |
GO:0030246 | carbohydrate binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any carbohydrate, which includes monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides as well as substances derived from monosaccharides by reduction of the carbonyl group (alditols), by oxidation of one or more hydroxy groups to afford the corresponding aldehydes, ketones, or carboxylic acids, or by replacement of one or more hydroxy group(s) by a hydrogen atom. Cyclitols are generally not regarded as carbohydrates. |
GO:0036094 | small molecule binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a small molecule, any low molecular weight, monomeric, non-encoded molecule. |
GO:0048029 | monosaccharide binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any monosaccharide. Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates; they are polyhydroxy aldehydes H[CH(OH)]nC(=O)H or polyhydroxy ketones H[CHOH]nC(=O)[CHOH]mH with three or more carbon atoms. They form the constitutional repeating units of oligo- and polysaccharides. |
GO:0003674 | molecular_function | Elemental activities, such as catalysis or binding, describing the actions of a gene product at the molecular level. A given gene product may exhibit one or more molecular functions. |
GO:0033222 | xylose binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with the D- or L-enantiomer of xylose. |
