Perlecan (PLC) also known as basement membrane-specific heparan sulfate proteoglycan core protein (HSPG) or heparan sulfate proteoglycan 2 (HSPG2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPG2 […]

Cytochrome b is the main subunit of transmembrane cytochrome bc1 and b6f complexes.

Cytochromes b5 are ubiquitous electron transport hemoproteins found in animals plants fungi and purple phototrophic bacteria. The microsomal and mitochondrial variants are membrane-bound while bacterial and those from erythrocytes and […]

Cytochrome P450 1A2 (abbreviated CYP1A2) a member of the cytochrome P450 mixed-function oxidase system is involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics in the body. In humans the CYP1A2 enzyme is […]

Rubredoxins are a class of low-molecular-weight iron-containing proteins found in sulfur-metabolizing bacteria and archaea. Sometimes rubredoxins are classified as iron-sulfur proteins; however in contrast to iron-sulfur proteins rubredoxins do not […]

Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (abbreviated as GAPDH or less commonly as G3PDH) (EC 1.2.1.12) is an enzyme of ~37kDa that catalyzes the sixth step of glycolysis and thus serves to break […]

Arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (officially abbreviated AVPR2) is a protein that acts as receptor for arginine vasopressin. AVPR2 belongs to the subfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors.

Vasopressin V1b receptor (V1bR) also known as vasopressin 3 receptor (VPR3) or antidiuretic hormone receptor 1b is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AVPR1B (arginine vasopressin receptor […]

Arginine vasopressin receptor 1A (officially called AVPR1A) is one of the three major receptor types for arginine vasopressin (AVPR1B and AVPR2 being the others) and is present throughout the brain […]

Properdin or Factor P is the only known positive regulator of complement activation that stabilizes the alternative pathway convertases. It is found in the blood serum of more complex animals.
