Intimin
Intimin is a virulence factor (adhesin) of EPEC (e.g. E. coli O127:H6) and EHEC (e.g. E. coli O157:H7) E. coli strains. It is an attaching and effacing (A/E) protein which […]
CXCR3
Chemokine receptor CXCR3 is a Gαi protein-coupled receptor in the CXC chemokine receptor family. Other names for CXCR3 are G protein-coupled receptor 9 (GPR9) and CD183. There are two variants […]
Factor H
Factor H is a member of the regulators of complement activation family and is a complement control protein. It is a large (155 kilodaltons) soluble glycoprotein that circulates in human […]
Frizzled
Frizzled is a family of G protein-coupled receptor proteins that serve as receptors in the Wnt signaling pathway and other signaling pathways. When activated Frizzled leads to activation of Dishevelled […]
Caspase 8
Caspase 8 is a caspase protein encoded by the CASP8 gene. It most likely acts upon caspase 3.CASP8 orthologs have been identified in numerous mammals for which complete genome data […]
PEN-2
PEN-2 (presenilin enhancer 2) is a protein that is a regulatory component of the gamma secretase complex a protease complex responsible for proteolysis of transmembrane proteins such as the Notch […]
APH-1
APH-1 (anterior pharynx-defective 1) is a protein gene product originally identified in the Notch signaling pathway in Caenorhabditis elegans as a regulator of the cell-surface localization of nicastrin. APH-1 homologs […]
Basigin
Basigin (BSG) also known as extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) or cluster of differentiation 147 (CD147) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BSG gene. This protein […]
Gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor
The gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor (GIP-R) also known as the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GIPR gene. The GIP-R is seven-transmembrane […]
