aP2 (adipocyte Protein 2) is a carrier protein for fatty acids that is primarily expressed in adipocytes and macrophages. aP2 is also called fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4). Blocking […]

Dynamin is a GTPase responsible for endocytosis in the eukaryotic cell. Dynamins are principally involved in the scission of newly formed vesicles from the membrane of one cellular compartment and […]

Heat shock 70 kDa protein 8 also known as heat shock cognate 71 kDa protein or Hsc70 or Hsp73 is a heat shock protein that in humans is encoded by […]

A fucosyltransferase is an enzyme that transfers an L-fucose sugar from a GDP-fucose (guanosine diphosphate-fucose) donor substrate to an acceptor substrate. The acceptor substrate can be another sugar such as […]

Guanylate cyclase 2C also known as guanylyl cyclase C (GC-C) intestinal guanylate cyclase guanylate cyclase-C receptor or the heat-stable enterotoxin receptor (hSTAR) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded […]

The adenosine A1 receptor is one member of the adenosine receptor group of G protein-coupled receptors with adenosine as endogenous ligand.

Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) is the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction that produces histamine from histidine with the help of vitamin B6 as follows:In humans the histidine decarboxylase enzyme is encoded […]

A fatty acid desaturase is an enzyme that removes two hydrogen atoms from a fatty acid creating a carbon/carbon double bond. These desaturases are classified as delta – indicating that […]

Dihydrobenzophenanthridine oxidase (DHBP oxidase) is an enzyme. In the IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature Dihydrobenzophenanthridine oxidase is EC 1.5.3.12. Dihydrobenzophenanthridine oxidase/EC 1.5.3.12 produces oxidized forms of benzophenanthridine alkaloids: In Sanguinaria Canadensis EC […]

Monoamine oxidase A also known as MAO-A is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MAOA gene. Monoamine oxidase A is an isozyme of monoamine oxidase. It preferentially […]
