Flavoprotein pyridine nucleotide cytochrome reductases catalyse the interchange of reducing equivalents between one-electron carriers and the two-electron-carrying nicotinamide dinucleotides. The enzymes include ferredoxin-NADP+ reductases plant and fungal NAD(P)H:nitrate reductases cytochrome […]

This family contains acyltransferases involved in phospholipid biosynthesis and proteins of unknown function. This family also includes tafazzin the Barth syndrome gene.

MiR-155 is a microRNA that in humans is encoded by the MIR155 host gene or MIR155HG. MiR-155 plays a role in various physiological and pathological processes. Exogenous molecular control in […]

The mammalian members of the MAGE (melanoma-associated antigen) gene family were originally described as completely silent in normal adult tissues with the exception of male germ cells and for some […]

Lysosome-associated membrane glycoproteins (lamp) are integral membrane proteins specific to lysosomes and whose exact biological function is not yet clear. Structurally the lamp proteins consist of two internally homologous lysosome-luminal […]

CD59 antigen (also called 1F-5Ag H19 HRF20 MACIF MIRL P-18 or protectin) inhibits formation of membrane attack complex (MAC) thus protecting cells from complement-mediated lysis. It has a signaling role […]

Rabaptin is a key protein involved in regeneration of injured axons.Regeneration of injured axons at neuromuscular junctions is regulated by extra-cellular protein factors that promote neurite outgrowth. A novel neurite […]

Peptaibols are biologically active peptides containing between seven and twenty amino acid residues some of which are non-proteinogenic amino acids. In particular they contain α-aminoisobutyric acid along with other unusual […]

Theta defensins are a family of mammalian antimicrobial peptides. They are found in some non-human primates but not in human gorilla bonobo and chimpanzee.
