Smoothened
Smoothened is a G protein-coupled receptor protein encoded by the SMO gene of the hedgehog signaling pathway conserved from flies to humans. It is the molecular target of the teratogen […]
ROR2
Tyrosine-protein kinase transmembrane receptor ROR2 also known as neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor-related 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ROR2 gene located on position 9 of […]
Ribonuclease III
RNase III enzymes specifically bind to and cleave double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). There are three subdivisions known as Class 1 2 and 3. Prokaryotic ribonuclease III (EC 3.1.26.3) (gene rnc) is […]
Immunoglobulin domain
The immunoglobulin domain is a type of protein domain that consists of a 2-layer sandwich of between 7 and 9 antiparallel β-strands arranged in two β-sheets with a Greek key […]
Beta-propeller
In structural biology a beta-propeller is a type of all-β protein architecture characterized by 4 to 8 blade-shaped beta sheets arranged toroidally around a central axis. Each sheet typically has […]
Ribonuclease inhibitor
Ribonuclease inhibitor (RI) is a large (~450 residues ~49 kDa) acidic (pI ~4.7) leucine-rich repeat protein that forms extremely tight complexes with certain ribonucleases. It is a major cellular protein […]
Κ-opioid receptor
The κ-opioid receptor (KOR) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the OPRK1 gene. The κ-opioid receptor is one of four related receptors that bind opium-like compounds in […]
Ferroxidase
Ferroxidase also known as Fe(II):oxygen oxidoreductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidization of iron II to iron III: 4 Fe2+ + 4 H+ + O2 = 4 Fe3+ + […]
Thyroxine 5-deiodinase
Thyroxine 5-deiodinase (EC 1.97.1.11 diiodothyronine 5′-deiodinase iodothyronine 5-deiodinase iodothyronine inner ring monodeiodinase type III iodothyronine deiodinase) is an enzyme with system name acceptor:33’5′-triiodo-L-thyronine oxidoreductase (iodinating). This enzyme catalyses the following […]
