Factor V
Factor V (pronounced factor five) is a protein of the coagulation system rarely referred to as proaccelerin or labile factor. In contrast to most other coagulation factors it is not […]
Factor X
Factor X also known by the eponym Stuart-Prower factor or as prothrombinase thrombokinase or thromboplastin is an enzyme (EC 3.4.21.6) of the coagulation cascade. It is a serine endopeptidase (protease […]
Fimbrin
Fimbrin also known as is plastin 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PLS1 gene. Fimbrin is an actin cross-linking protein important in the formation of […]
P-glycoprotein
P-glycoprotein 1 (permeability glycoprotein abbreviated as P-gp or Pgp) also known as multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) or ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1) or cluster of differentiation 243 […]
ATP-binding cassette transporter
ATP-binding cassette transporters (ABC transporters) are members of a protein superfamily that is one of the largest and oldest families with representatives in all extant phyla from prokaryotes to humans.
Intercellular adhesion molecule
In molecular biology intercellular adhesion molecules (ICAMs) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) are part of the immunoglobulin superfamily. They are important in inflammation immune responses and in intracellular signalling […]
Aldolase A
Aldolase A is an enzyme that catalyses a reversible aldol reaction: The substrate fructose 16-bisphosphate (F-16-BP) is broken down into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). This reaction is a […]
Chloride channel
Chloride channels are a superfamily of poorly understood ion channels consisting of approximately 13 members. Chloride channels display a variety of important physiological and cellular roles that include regulation of […]
C1-inhibitor
C1-inhibitor (C1-inh C1 esterase inhibitor) is a protease inhibitor belonging to the serpin superfamily. Its main function is the inhibition of the complement system to prevent spontaneous activation. C1-inhibitor is […]
