Adrenomedullin is a peptide hormone that in humans is encoded by the ADM gene.is a peptide associated with pheochromocytoma- a tumour arising from adrenal medulla. It was discovered in 1993.Adrenomedullin […]
CD86
Cluster of Differentiation 86 (also known as CD86 and B7-2) is a protein expressed on antigen-presenting cells that provides costimulatory signals necessary for T cell activation and survival. It is […]
CD80
Cluster of Differentiation 80 (also CD80 and B7-1) is a protein found on activated B cells and monocytes that provides a costimulatory signal necessary for T cell activation and survival. […]
Lipoprotein(a)
Lipoprotein(a) (also called Lp(a)) is a lipoprotein subclass. Genetic studies and numerous epidemiologic studies have identified Lp(a) as a risk factor for atherosclerotic diseases such as coronary heart disease and […]
Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide
Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide also known as PACAP is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ADCYAP1 gene. PACAP is similar to vasoactive intestinal peptide. One of its […]

Hormone-sensitive lipase
Hormone-sensitive lipase (EC 3.1.1.79 HSL) also previously known as cholesteryl ester hydrolase (CEH) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the LIPE gene.HSL is an intracellular neutral lipase […]
Thymopoietin
Lamina-associated polypeptide 2 (LAP2) isoforms beta/gamma is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMPO gene. LAP2 is an inner nuclear membrane (INM) protein.Thymopoietin is a protein involved […]
SUN domain
SUN (Sad1p UNC-84) domains are conserved C-terminal protein regions a few hundred amino acids long. SUN domains are usually found following a transmembrane domain and a less conserved region of […]
