Nuclear receptor
In the field of molecular biology nuclear receptors are a class of proteins found within cells that are responsible for sensing steroid and thyroid hormones and certain other molecules.
PTPN11
Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 11 (PTPN11) also known as protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1D (PTP-1D) or protein-tyrosine phosphatase 2C (PTP-2C) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PTPN11 gene. […]
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is an enzyme that is involved in pyrimidine degradation. It is the initial and rate-limiting step in pyrimidine catabolism. It catalyzes the reduction of uracil and thymine. […]
Von Hippel–Lindau tumor suppressor
The Von Hippel–Lindau tumor suppressor also known as pVHL is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VHL gene. Mutations of the VHL gene are associated with Von […]
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor
The aryl-hydrocarbon receptor repressor also known as AHRR is a human gene.
Sulfatase
Sulfatases EC 3.1.6. are enzymes of the esterase class that catalyze the hydrolysis of sulfate esters. These may be found on a range of substrates including steroids carbohydrates and proteins. […]
Steroid sulfatase
Steroid sulfatase (or steryl-sulfatase) formerly known as arylsulfatase C is a sulfatase enzyme involved in the metabolism of steroids. It is encoded by the STS gene.
7-Dehydrocholesterol reductase
7-dehydrocholesterol reductase also known as DHCR7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DHCR7 gene.
Iduronidase
Iduronidase (EC 3.2.1.76 L-iduronidase alpha-L-iduronidase) is an enzyme with the system name glycosaminoglycan alpha-L-iduronohydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the hydrolysis of unsulfated alpha-L-iduronosidic linkages in dermatan sulfate.It is involved in the […]
