Beta defensin
Beta defensins are a family of mammalian defensins. The beta defensins are antimicrobial peptides implicated in the resistance of epithelial surfaces to microbial colonization.Defensins are 2-6 kDa cationic microbicidal peptides […]
Alpha defensin
Alpha defensins are a family of mammalian defensin peptides.Defensins are 2-6 kDa cationic microbicidal peptides active against many Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria fungi and enveloped viruses containing three pairs of […]
Glycoside hydrolase family 1
Glycoside hydrolase family 1 is a family of glycoside hydrolases.Glycoside hydrolases EC 3.2.1. are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates or […]
Pentatricopeptide repeat
The pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) is a 35-amino acid sequence motif. Pentatricopeptide repeat containing proteins are a family of proteins commonly found in the plant kingdom. They are distinguished by the […]
Major intrinsic proteins
Major intrinsic proteins are a large family of transmembrane protein channels that are grouped together on the basis of sequence similarities. Proteins from this family exhibit essentially two distinct types […]
Sodium:neurotransmitter symporter
Sodium:neurotransmitter symporters is a family of neurotransmitter transporters.Neurotransmitter transport systems are responsible for the release re-uptake and recycling of neurotransmitters at synapses.High affinity transport proteins found in the plasma membrane […]
Replication protein A
Replication protein A (RPA) is a protein that binds single-stranded DNA in eukaryotic cells. During DNA replication RPA prevents single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) from winding back on itself or from forming […]
ATP synthase subunit C
ATPase subunit C of F0/V0 complex is the main transmembrane subunit of V-type A-type and F-type ATP synthases.ATPases (or ATP synthases) are membrane-bound enzyme complexes/ion transporters that combine ATP synthesis […]
Carboxylesterase family
Carboxylesterase type B is a family of evolutionarily related proteins.Higher eukaryotes have many distinct esterases. The different types include those that act on carboxylic esters (EC 3.1.1). Carboxyl-esterases have been […]
