Lysosome-associated membrane glycoproteins (lamp) are integral membrane proteins specific to lysosomes and whose exact biological function is not yet clear. Structurally the lamp proteins consist of two internally homologous lysosome-luminal […]

CD59 antigen (also called 1F-5Ag H19 HRF20 MACIF MIRL P-18 or protectin) inhibits formation of membrane attack complex (MAC) thus protecting cells from complement-mediated lysis. It has a signaling role […]

Rabaptin is a key protein involved in regeneration of injured axons.Regeneration of injured axons at neuromuscular junctions is regulated by extra-cellular protein factors that promote neurite outgrowth. A novel neurite […]

Peptaibols are biologically active peptides containing between seven and twenty amino acid residues some of which are non-proteinogenic amino acids. In particular they contain α-aminoisobutyric acid along with other unusual […]

Theta defensins are a family of mammalian antimicrobial peptides. They are found in some non-human primates but not in human gorilla bonobo and chimpanzee.

enod40 also known as early nodulin 40 is a gene found in flowering plants. The gene has characteristics of both protein and Non-coding RNA genes.

CUB domain is an evolutionarily conserved protein domain.The CUB domain (for complement C1r/C1s Uegf Bmp1) is a structural motif of approximately 110 residues found almost exclusively in extracellular and plasma […]

The Somatostatin family is a protein family with somatostatin as titular member a hormone which inhibits the release of the pituitary somatotropin (growth hormone) and inhibits the release of glucagon […]

Gastrin and cholecystokinin (CCK) are structurally and functionally related peptide hormones that function as hormonal regulators of various digestive processes and feeding behaviors. They are known to induce gastric secretion […]
