Retinoic acid receptor
The retinoic acid receptor (RAR) is a type of nuclear receptor which can also act as a transcription factor that is activated by both all-trans retinoic acid and 9-cis retinoic […]
CD11a
Integrin alpha L (antigen CD11A (p180) lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1; alpha polypeptide) also known as ITGAL is a human gene which functions in the immune system. It is involved in […]
CD11c
CD11c also known as Integrin alpha X (complement component 3 receptor 4 subunit) (ITGAX) is a gene that encodes for CD11c . CD11c is an integrin alpha X chain protein. […]
Epithelial sodium channel
The epithelial sodium channel (short: ENaC also: sodium channel non-neuronal 1 (SCNN1) or amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (ASSC)) is a membrane-bound ion-channel that is permeable for Li+-ions protons and especially Na+-ions. […]
Aldosterone synthase
Aldosterone synthase is a steroid hydroxylase cytochrome P450 enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the mineralocorticoid aldosterone. It is a protein which is only expressed in the zona glomerulosa of […]
P2X purinoreceptor
P2X receptors are a family of cation-permeable ligand gated ion channels that open in response to the binding of extracellular adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP). They belong to a larger family of […]
BMPR1A
The bone morphogenetic protein receptor type IA also known as BMPR1A is a protein which in humans is encoded by the BMPR1A gene. BMPR1A has also been designated as CD292 […]
Bradykinin receptor
The bradykinin receptor family is a group of G-protein coupled receptors whose principal ligand is the protein bradykinin.There are two Bradykinin receptors: the B1 receptor and the B2 receptor.
Galanin
Galanin is a neuropeptide encoded by the GAL gene that is widely expressed in the brain spinal cord and gut of humans as well as other mammals. Galanin signaling occurs […]
