Integrin
Integrins are transmembrane receptors that mediate the attachment between a cell and its surroundings such as other cells or the extracellular matrix (ECM). In signal transduction integrins pass information about […]
Interferon
Interferons (IFNs) are proteins made and released by host cells in response to the presence of pathogens such as viruses bacteria parasites or tumor cells. They allow for communication between […]
Insulin
Insulin is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells in the liver and is central to regulating carbohydrate and fat metabolism in the body. It causes cells in the skeletal […]
Histone
In biology histones are highly alkaline proteins found in eukaryotic cell nuclei that package and order the DNA into structural units called nucleosomes. They are the chief protein components of […]
G protein-coupled receptor
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) also known as seven-transmembrane domain receptors 7TM receptors heptahelical receptors serpentine receptor and G protein-linked receptors (GPLR) constitute a large protein family of receptors that sense […]
Collagen helix
In collagen the collagen helix or type-2 helix is a major shape in secondary structure. It consists of a triple helix made of the repetitious amino acid sequence glycine – […]
Calreticulin
Calreticulin also known as calregulin CRP55 CaBP3 calsequestrin-like protein and endoplasmic reticulum resident protein 60 (ERp60) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CALR gene.Calreticulin is a […]
Beta-lactamase
Beta-lactamases are enzymes (EC 3.5.2.6) produced by some bacteria that provide resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics like penicillins cephamycins and carbapenems (ertapenem) although carbapenems are relatively resistant to beta-lactamase. Beta-lactamase provides […]
