Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (or TFPI) is a single-chain polypeptide which can reversibly inhibit Factor Xa (Xa). While Xa is inhibited the Xa-TFPI complex can subsequently also inhibit the FVIIa-tissue […]

Obestatin is a putative hormone that is potentially produced in the cells lining the stomach and small intestine of several mammals including humans. Obestatin was originally identified as an anorectic […]

Doublecortin domain-containing protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DCDC2 gene.

Band 3 anion transport protein also known as anion exchanger 1 (AE1) or band 3 or solute carrier family 4 member 1 (SLC4A1) is a protein that in humans is […]

Collagen type II alpha 1 (primary osteoarthritis spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenital) also known as COL2A1 is a human gene that provides instructions for the production of the pro-alpha1(II) chain of type […]

Plectin is a giant protein (c500 kDa) found in nearly all mammalian cells which acts as a link between the three main components of the cytoskeleton: actin microfilaments microtubules and […]

Interleukin 5 or IL-5 is an interleukin produced by T helper-2 cells and mast cells.

CD40 is a costimulatory protein found on antigen presenting cells and is required for their activation. The binding of CD154 (CD40L) on TH cells to CD40 activates antigen presenting cells […]

The bacterial outer membrane is found in Gram-negative bacteria. Its composition is distinct from that of the plasma membrane – among other things the outer leaflet of the outer membrane […]

Growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) also known as growth-hormone-releasing factor (GRF GHRF) somatoliberin or somatocrinin is a releasing hormone for growth hormone. It is a 44-amino acid peptide hormone produced in the […]
