GO:0022857 transmembrane transporter activity Enables the transfer of a substance from one side of a membrane to the other.
GO:0022891 substrate-specific transmembrane transporter activity Enables the transfer of a specific substance or group of related substances from one side of a membrane to the other.
GO:0005215 transporter activity Enables the directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells.
GO:0005216 ion channel activity Enables the facilitated diffusion of an ion (by an energy-independent process) by passage through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel without evidence for a carrier-mediated mechanism. May be either selective (it enables passage of a specific ion only) or non-selective (it enables passage of two or more ions of same charge but different size).
GO:0015075 ion transmembrane transporter activity Enables the transfer of an ion from one side of a membrane to the other.
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:0022892 substrate-specific transporter activity Enables the directed movement of a specific substance or group of related substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells.
GO:0022803 passive transmembrane transporter activity Enables the transfer of a solute from one side of the membrane to the other, down the solute's concentration gradient.
GO:0015267 channel activity Enables the energy-independent facilitated diffusion, mediated by passage of a solute through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel. Stereospecificity is not exhibited but this transport may be specific for a particular molecular species or class of molecules.
GO:0022834 ligand-gated channel activity Enables the transmembrane transfer of a solute by a channel that opens when a specific ligand has been bound by the channel complex or one of its constituent parts.
GO:0022836 gated channel activity Enables the transmembrane transfer of a solute by a channel that opens in response to a specific stimulus.
GO:0022838 substrate-specific channel activity Enables the energy-independent facilitated diffusion, mediated by passage of a specific solute through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel. Stereospecificity is not exhibited but this transport may be specific for a particular molecular species or class of molecules.
GO:0015276 ligand-gated ion channel activity Enables the transmembrane transfer of an ion by a channel that opens when a specific ligand has been bound by the channel complex or one of its constituent parts.
