Interleukin 15 (IL-15) is a cytokine with structural similarity to IL-2. Like IL-2 IL-15 binds to and signals through a complex composed of IL-2/IL-15 receptor beta chain (CD122) and the […]

This article is about molecular biology. For other uses see Fadd (disambiguation).Fas-Associated protein with Death Domain (FADD) also called MORT1 is encoded by the FADD gene on the 11q13.3 region […]

The FAS receptor (FasR) also known as apoptosis antigen 1 (APO-1 or APT) cluster of differentiation 95 (CD95) or tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6 (TNFRSF6) is a protein […]

ZAP-70 (Zeta-chain-associated protein kinase 70) is a protein normally expressed near the surface membrane of T cells and natural killer cells. It is part of the T cell receptor and […]

Aspartic proteases are a family of protease enzymes that use an aspartate residue for catalysis of their peptide substrates. In general they have two highly conserved aspartates in the active […]

Lysyl oxidase (LOX) also known as protein-lysine 6-oxidase is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LOX gene. Its inhibition can cause lathyrism but at the same time […]

Presenilins are a family of related multi-pass transmembrane proteins that function as a part of the gamma-secretase intramembrane protease complex. They were first identified in screens for mutations causing early […]

Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) also known as core-binding factor subunit alpha-1 (CBF-alpha-1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RUNX2 gene. RUNX2 is a key transcription […]

p16 (also known as cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A multiple tumor suppressor 1 and as several other synonyms) is a tumor suppressor protein that in humans is encoded by the CDKN2A […]

HLA-C belongs to the MHC (human = HLA) class I heavy chain receptors. The C receptor is a heterodimer consisting of a HLA-C mature gene product and β2-microglobulin. The mature […]
