Advanced glycosylation end products of proteins (AGEs) are nonenzymatically glycosylated proteins that are associated with a variety of conditions including...
Ets-1 is the prototype member of a family of genes identified on the basis of homology to the v-Ets oncogene isolated from the E26 erythroblastosis virus....
Embryonic stem cells require the forkhead transcriptional regulator FoxD3 for survival. Following gastrulation, FoxD3 generally gets downregulated, except in...
Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a developmental disorder caused by the hemizygous microdeletion on chromosome 7q11.23. WBS is an autosomal dominant genetic...
Max is a nuclear localized bHLH-Zip protein that forms homodimers or heterodimers with Myc family members, including Myc, Mad 1, Mad 3, Mad 4, Mxi1 and Mnt...
The BRCA2-Associated Factor 35 (BRAF35) protein forms a 20 kDa complex with BRCA2, which associates with condensed chromatin during histone H3...
An interferon-inducible, RNA-dependent protein serine /threonine kinase (PKR) has been described. PKR in earlier literature is variously known as DAI, dsJ,...
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) is a 120 kDa protein localized to the lumen of the ER, which removes NH2-terminal residues from many...
Signal transduction of TGF-beta superfamily members is regulated by Smad proteins. In particular, Smads influence specific gene transcription by relaying...
Breast cancer metastasis-suppressor 1 (BRMS1) acts as a mediator of metastasis suppression in several types of cancer including ovarian, lung, bladder, and...
CDCP1 (CUB-domain-containing protein 1) contains three extracellular CUB domains, a transmembrane domain and two putative cytoplasmic tyrosine...
The MAPKAP kinases (for MAP kinase activated protein kinases) are a group of MAP kinase substrates which are themselves kinases. In response to activation,...
Telomeres are DNA-protein structures that protect the ends of linear chromosomes and help maintain genomic stability and cell phenotype. Mammalian telomeric...
ATF-6 is a member of the basic-leucine zipper family of transcription factors. Endoplasmic reticulum stress causes cleavage of transmembrane ATF-6 and...
The Forkhead-box (FOX) genes comprise a superfamily of at least 43 members that encode proteins which are involved in transcriptional regulation and may be...
Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascades are activated by various extracellular stimuli including growth factors. The MEK kinases (also called MAP...
PREP-2 (Pbx-regulating protein-2), also known as PBX/knotted 1 homeobox 2 or PKNOX2, is a widely expressed protein belonging to the TALE (three amino acid...
ORCTL2 (organic cation transporter-like protein 2), also known as HET, ITM, BWR1A, IMPT1, TSSC5, BWSCR1A, SLC22A1L, p45-BWR1A or SLC22A18, is a 424 amino...
