Phosphoglycerate mutase
This enzyme is not to be confused with Bisphosphoglycerate mutase which catalyzes the conversion of 13-bisphosphoglycerate to 23-bisphosphoglycerate.Phosphoglycerate mutase (PGM) is an enzyme that catalyzes step 8 of glycolysis. It […]
Peptide YY
Peptide YY (PYY) also known as peptide tyrosine tyrosine or pancreatic peptide YY3-36 is a peptide that in humans is encoded by the PPY gene. Peptide YY is a short […]
Lipotropin
Lipotropin is a hormone produced by the cleavage of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC). The anterior pituitary gland produces the pro-hormone POMC which is then cleaved again to form adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and β-lipotropin […]
Neuropeptide Y receptor
Neuropeptide Y receptors are a class of G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by the closely related peptide hormones neuropeptide Y peptide YY and pancreatic polypeptide. These receptors are involved […]
Calcitonin gene-related peptide
Calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) is a member of the calcitonin family of peptides which in humans exists in two forms α-CGRP and β-CGRP. α-CGRP is a 37-amino acid peptide […]
Apolipoprotein C1
Apolipoprotein C-I is a protein component of lipoproteins that in humans is encoded by the APOC1 gene.
Mineralocorticoid receptor
The mineralocorticoid receptor (or MR MLR MCR) also known as the aldosterone receptor or nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 2 (NR3C2) is a protein that in humans is […]
