HLA-A is a group of human leukocyte antigens (HLA) that are coded for by the HLA-A locus which is located at human chromosome 6p21.3. HLA is simply the major histocompatibility […]

SK channels (Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channels) are a subfamily of Ca2+-activated K+ channels. They are so called because of their small single channel conductance in the order of 10 […]

Emerin together with MAN1 is a LEM domain-containing integral protein of the inner nuclear membrane in vertebrates. The function of MAN1 is not extensively known but emerin is known to […]

MCEF or Major Cdk9-interacting elongation factor is a transcription factor related to Af4. It is the fourth member of the Af4 family (AFF) of transcription factors involved in numerous pathologies […]

Rhodanese is a mitochondrial enzyme that detoxifies cyanide (CN-) by converting it to thiocyanate (SCN-).This reaction takes place in two steps. The diagram on the right shows the crystallographically-determined structure […]

Hydrophobins are a group of small (~100 amino acids) cysteine-rich proteins that are expressed only by filamentous fungi. They are known for their ability to form a hydrophobic (water-repellent) coating […]

CCL28 also known as mucosae-associated epithelial chemokine (MEC) CCK1 and SCYA28 is a chemokine. CCL28 regulates the chemotaxis of cells that express the chemokine receptors CCR3 and CCR10.CCL28 is expressed […]
