Corticotropin-releasing hormone binding protein family
Corticotropin-releasing factor binding protein family consists of several eukaryotic corticotropin-releasing factor binding proteins (CRF-BP or CRH-BP). Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) plays multiple roles in vertebrate species. In mammals it is the […]
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone family
The gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GnRH) (gonadoliberin) are a family of peptides that play a pivotal role in reproduction. The main function of GnRH is to act on the pituitary to stimulate […]
PKD domain
PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) domain was first identified in the polycystic kidney disease protein polycystin-1 (PDK1 gene) and contains an Ig-like fold consisting of a beta-sandwich of seven strands in […]
