The high-affinity IgE receptor also known as FcεRI or Fc epsilon RI is the high-affinity receptor for the Fc region of immunoglobulin E (IgE) an antibody isotype involved in the […]

Perilipin also known as lipid droplet-associated protein or PLIN is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PLIN gene. The perilipins are a family of proteins that associate […]

Smoothened is a G protein-coupled receptor protein encoded by the SMO gene of the hedgehog signaling pathway conserved from flies to humans. It is the molecular target of the teratogen […]

Tyrosine-protein kinase transmembrane receptor ROR2 also known as neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor-related 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ROR2 gene located on position 9 of […]

RNase III enzymes specifically bind to and cleave double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). There are three subdivisions known as Class 1 2 and 3. Prokaryotic ribonuclease III (EC 3.1.26.3) (gene rnc) is […]

The immunoglobulin domain is a type of protein domain that consists of a 2-layer sandwich of between 7 and 9 antiparallel β-strands arranged in two β-sheets with a Greek key […]

In structural biology a beta-propeller is a type of all-β protein architecture characterized by 4 to 8 blade-shaped beta sheets arranged toroidally around a central axis. Each sheet typically has […]

Ribonuclease inhibitor (RI) is a large (~450 residues ~49 kDa) acidic (pI ~4.7) leucine-rich repeat protein that forms extremely tight complexes with certain ribonucleases. It is a major cellular protein […]

The κ-opioid receptor (KOR) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the OPRK1 gene. The κ-opioid receptor is one of four related receptors that bind opium-like compounds in […]

Glycosyltransferases (abbre. GTFs Gtfs) are enzymes (EC 2.4) that establish natural glycosidic linkages including the biosynthesis of disaccharides oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. They catalyse the transfer of monosaccharide moieties from activated […]
