GLUT2
Glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) also known as solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter) member 2 (SLC2A2) is a transmembrane carrier protein that enables protein facilitated glucose movement across cell […]
UBA1
Ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 1 (UBA1) is an enzyme which in humans is encoded by the UBA1 gene.
Insulin-like growth factor 2
Insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF-2) is one of three protein hormones that share structural similarity to insulin. The MeSH definition reads: A well-characterized neutral peptide believed to be secreted by […]
Von Hippel–Lindau binding protein 1
von Hippel–Lindau binding protein 1 (VBP1) also known as prefoldin 3 is a chaperone protein that binds to von Hippel–Lindau protein and transports it from perinuclear granules to the nucleus […]
Bacterial adhesin
Adhesins are cell-surface components or appendages of bacteria that facilitate adhesion or adherence to other cells or to surfaces. Adhesins are a type of virulence factor.Adherence is an essential step […]
Complement component 3
Complement component 3 often simply called C3 is a protein of the immune system. It plays a central role in the complement system and contributes to innate immunity. In humans […]
Endothelin
Endothelins are proteins that constrict blood vessels and raise blood pressure. They are normally kept in balance by other mechanisms but when they are over-expressed they contribute to high blood […]
ACADVL
ACADVL is a gene associated with very long-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency.
Kringle domain
Kringle Domains are autonomous protein domains that fold into large loops stabilized by 3 disulfide linkages. These are important in protein-protein interactions with blood coagulation factors. The name Kringle comes […]
