LDL receptor
The Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Receptor is a mosaic protein of 839 amino acids (after removal of 21-amino acid signal peptide) that mediates the endocytosis of cholesterol-rich LDL. It is a […]
Thrombospondin
Thrombospondins (TSP) are secreted proteins with antiangiogenic abilities. TSP was discovered by Nancy L. Baenziger.
COQ7
The clk-1 (Clock abnormal protein 1) gene encodes an enzyme (demethoxyubiquinone mono-oxygenase) that is necessary for ubiquinone biosynthesis in the worm Caenorhabditis elegans and other eukaryotes. The mouse version of […]
Entactin
Entactin also known as nidogen-1 (NID-1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NID1 gene. Entactin is a component of the basement membrane alongside other components such […]
TLR3
Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) also known as CD283 (cluster of differentiation 283) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TLR3 gene. TLR3 is a member of the […]
