Glycophorin C
Glycophorin C (GYPC; CD236/CD236R; glycoprotein beta; glycoconnectin; PAS-2′) plays a functionally important role in maintaining erythrocyte shape and regulating membrane material properties possibly through its interaction with protein 4.1. Moreover […]
Transthyretin
Transthyretin (TTR) is a serum and cerebrospinal fluid carrier of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) and retinol-binding protein bound to retinol. This is how transthyretin gained its name transports thyroxine […]
Stromal cell-derived factor 1
The stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) also known as C-X-C motif chemokine 12 (CXCL12) is a chemokine protein that in humans is encoded by the CXCL12 gene.Stromal cell-derived factors 1-alpha […]
Dystrophin
Dystrophin is a rod-shaped cytoplasmic protein and a vital part of a protein complex that connects the cytoskeleton of a muscle fiber to the surrounding extracellular matrix through the cell […]
Calcineurin
Calcineurin (CN) is a protein phosphatase also known as protein phosphatase 3 and calcium-dependent serine-threonine phosphatase. It activates the T cells of the immune system and can be blocked by […]
Parkin (ligase)
Parkin is a protein which in humans is encoded by the PARK2 gene.
Ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1
Ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (EC 3.1.2.15 ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase UCH-L1) is a deubiquitinating enzyme.
Glucose oxidase
The glucose oxidase enzyme (GOx) (EC 1.1.3.4) is an oxido-reductase that catalyses the oxidation of glucose to hydrogen peroxide and D-glucono-δ-lactone. In cells it aids in breaking the sugar down […]
