Protein S
Protein S is a vitamin K-dependent plasma glycoprotein synthesized in the endothelium. In the circulation Protein S exists in two forms: a free form and a complex form bound to […]
Glucokinase regulatory protein
The glucokinase regulatory protein (GKRP) also known as glucokinase (hexokinase 4) regulator (GCKR) is a protein produced in hepatocytes (liver cells). GKRP binds and moves glucokinase (GK) thereby controlling both […]
Ligand-gated ion channel
Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are a group of transmembrane ion channel proteins which open to allow ions such as Na+ K+ Ca2+ or Cl- to pass through the membrane in […]
Clusterin
Clusterin (apolipoprotein J) is a 75 – 80 kDa disulfide-linked heterodimeric protein associated with the clearance of cellular debris and apoptosis. In humans clusterin is encoded by the CLU gene.This […]
