GO ID Ontology GO Term Description

GO:0003861

MF

3-isopropylmalate dehydratase activity

Catalysis of the reaction: (2R,3S)-3-isopropylmalate = (2S)-2-isopropylmalate.

GO:0009098

BP

leucine biosynthetic process

The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of leucine, 2-amino-4-methylpentanoic acid.

GO:0009507

CC

chloroplast

A chlorophyll-containing plastid with thylakoids organized into grana and frets, or stroma thylakoids, and embedded in a stroma.

GO:0009536

CC

plastid

Any member of a family of organelles found in the cytoplasm of plants and some protists, which are membrane-bounded and contain DNA. Plant plastids develop from a common type, the proplastid.

GO:0009570

CC

chloroplast stroma

The space enclosed by the double membrane of a chloroplast but excluding the thylakoid space. It contains DNA, ribosomes and some temporary products of photosynthesis.

GO:0016829

MF

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 onl

GO:0019761

BP

glucosinolate biosynthetic process

The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of glucosinolates, substituted thioglucosides found in rapeseed products and related cruciferae.

GO:0046686

BP

response to cadmium ion

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 cadmium (Cd) ion stimulus.

GO:0046872

MF

metal ion binding

Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any metal ion.

GO:0050486

MF

intramolecular transferase activity, transferring hydroxy groups

Catalysis of the transfer of a hydroxyl group from one position to another within a single molecule.

GO:0051539

MF

4 iron, 4 sulfur cluster binding

Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a 4 iron, 4 sulfur (4Fe-4S) cluster; this cluster consists of four iron atoms, with the inorganic sulfur atoms found between the irons and acting as bridging ligands.
