Polyhedrins are proteins that form virus occlusion bodies large structures (polyhedra) that protect the virus from the outside environment for extended periods until they are ingested by insect larvae. They […]

Nitroreductases are a family of evolutionarily related proteins involved in the reduction of nitrogen-containing compounds including those containing the nitro functional group. Members of this family utilise FMN as a […]

Small multidrug resistance protein is a family of integral membrane proteins which confer drug resistance to a wide range of toxic compounds by removing them for the cells. The efflux […]

Nematode chemoreceptors are chemoreceptors of nematodes. Animals recognise a wide variety of chemicals using their senses of taste and smell. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has only 14 types of chemosensory […]

Coagulin is a gel-forming protein of hemolymph that hinders the spread of invaders by immobilising them.The protein contains a single 175- residue polypeptide chain; this is cleaved after Arg-18 and […]

Bacterial ice-nucleation proteins is a family of proteins that enable Gram-negative bacteria to promote nucleation of ice at relatively high temperatures (above -5C). These proteins are localised at the outer […]

Influenza non-structural protein (NS1) is a homodimeric RNA-binding protein found in influenza virus that is required for viral replication. NS1 binds polyA tails of mRNA keeping them in the nucleus. […]

Herpesvirus glycoprotein B is a viral glycoprotein that is involved in the viral cell entry of Herpes simplex virus (HSV). Herpesviruses have an envelope and an outer lipid bilayer which […]

Proline-rich membrane anchor 1 also known as PRiMA is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PRIMA1 gene. PRiMA functions to organize acetylcholinesterase (AChE) into tetramers and to […]

Thymidylate kinase (EC 2.7.4.9; dTMP kinase) catalyzes the phosphorylation of thymidine 5′-monophosphate (dTMP) to form thymidine 5′-diphosphate (dTDP) in the presence of ATP and magnesium: ATP + thymidine 5′-phosphate ADP […]
