The epithelial sodium channel (short: ENaC also: sodium channel non-neuronal 1 (SCNN1) or amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (ASSC)) is a membrane-bound ion-channel that is permeable for Li+-ions protons and especially Na+-ions. […]

Aldosterone synthase is a steroid hydroxylase cytochrome P450 enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the mineralocorticoid aldosterone. It is a protein which is only expressed in the zona glomerulosa of […]

P2X receptors are a family of cation-permeable ligand gated ion channels that open in response to the binding of extracellular adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP). They belong to a larger family of […]

The bone morphogenetic protein receptor type IA also known as BMPR1A is a protein which in humans is encoded by the BMPR1A gene. BMPR1A has also been designated as CD292 […]

The bradykinin receptor family is a group of G-protein coupled receptors whose principal ligand is the protein bradykinin.There are two Bradykinin receptors: the B1 receptor and the B2 receptor.

Galanin is a neuropeptide encoded by the GAL gene that is widely expressed in the brain spinal cord and gut of humans as well as other mammals. Galanin signaling occurs […]

The thyrotropin receptor (or TSH receptor) is a receptor (and associated protein) that responds to thyroid-stimulating hormone (also known as thyrotropin) and stimulates the production of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine […]
