I have been learning some representation theory and have some questions about the following pattern:

 <b> Instance 1: </b> If we have a finite group $G$ and a field $k$, a representation of $G$ over $k$ consists of a finite dimensional $k$-vector space $V$ and a homomorphism $G \to GL(V)$. We have a Hopf algebra $kG$ and an equivalence between representations of $G$ over $k$ and finite dimensional $kG$-modules.

 <b> Instance 2: </b>If we have a Lie group $G$, a representation of $G$ consists of a finite dimensional $\mathbb{R}$-vector space $V$ and a smooth homomorphism $ G \to GL(V) $. Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be the lie algebra of $G$. Then we have a Hopf algebra $U(\mathfrak{g})$ and an equivalence between representations of $G$ and finite dimensional $U(\mathfrak{g})$-modules.

>> <b> Question: </b> If $G$ is an algebraic group over some field $k$, is there a Hopf algebra floating around?


Thanks!
