Gastric hydrogen potassium ATPase is also known as H+/K+ ATPase.

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR or AHR) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AHR gene. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor is a ligand-activated transcription factor involved in […]

A bromodomain is a protein domain that recognizes acetylated lysine residues such as those on the N-terminal tails of histones. This recognition is often a prerequisite for protein-histone association and […]

The KAL1 gene is a human gene which is located on the X chromosome at Xp22.3 and is affected in some individuals with Kallmann syndrome. This gene codes for a […]

Coilin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COIL gene.Coilin protein is one of the main molecular components of Cajal bodies (CBs). Cajal bodies are nuclear suborganelles […]

Tyrosine hydroxylase or tyrosine 3-monooxygenase is the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the conversion of the amino acid L-tyrosine to L-34-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA). It does so using molecular oxygen (O2) as well […]

Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Proteins (SREBPs) are transcription factors that bind to the sterol regulatory element DNA sequence TCACNCCAC. Mammalian SREBPs are encoded by the genes SREBF1 and SREBF2. SREBPs belong […]

CD72 (Cluster of Differentiation 72) also known in murine biology as Lyb-2 is a protein active in the immune system of animals. It consists of two identical halves each of […]

Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor also known as GDNF is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GDNF gene.GDNF is a small protein that potently promotes the survival of […]

Caspase recruitment domains or Caspase activation and recruitment domains (CARDs) are interaction motifs found in a wide array of proteins typically those involved in processes relating to inflammation and apoptosis. […]
