GTPase HRas also known as transforming protein p21 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HRAS gene. The HRAS gene is located on the short (p) arm […]

Werner syndrome ATP-dependent helicase also known as DNA helicase RecQ-like type 3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the WRN gene. WRN is a member of the […]

Heme oxygenase or haem oxygenase (HO) is an enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of heme. This produces biliverdin iron and carbon monoxide.

MUTYH (mutY Homolog (E. coli)) is a human gene encoding a DNA glycosylase MUTYH glycosylase involved in oxidative DNA damage repair. The enzyme excises adenine bases from the DNA backbone […]

Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) also known as deleted in polyposis 2.5 (DP2.5) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the APC gene. Mutations in the APC gene may […]

The Urokinase receptor also known as uPA receptor or uPAR or CD87 (Cluster of Differentiation 87) is multidomain glycoprotein tethered to the cell membrane with a glycosylphosphotidylinositol (GPI) anchor. uPAR […]

HMOX1 (heme oxygenase (decycling) 1) is a human gene that encodes for the enzyme heme oxygenase 1 (EC 1.14.99.3). Heme oxygenase is an essential enzyme in heme catabolism it cleaves […]

The huntingtin gene also called HTT or HD (Huntington disease) gene is the IT15 (interesting transcript 15) gene which codes for a protein called the huntingtin protein. The gene and […]

ASL (argininosuccinate lyase also known as argininosuccinase) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reversible breakdown of argininosuccinate (ASA) producing the amino acid arginine and dicarboxylic acid fumarate. Located in liver […]

Argininosuccinate synthase or synthetase (ASS) (EC 6.3.4.5) is an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of argininosuccinate from citrulline and aspartate.ASS is responsible for the third step of the urea cycle […]
