Human cartilage glycoprotein 39 (GP-39), also known as YKL-40, is a glycoprotein secreted by articular chondrocytes, synoviocytes and macrophages. Serum and...
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a circulating metabolic enzyme that transports cholesterol from the arteries to the liver (1-3). CETP converts...
Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 3 (CDKN3), also designated Cdk2-associated dual specificity phosphatase, cyclin-dependent kinase interactor 1 (CDI1), CIP2,...
It is now well established that cyclins play a positive role in promoting cell cycle transitions via their ability to associate with and activate their...
Cdk7 is a member of the cyclin dependent protein kinase (CDK) family. CDK family members are highly similar to the gene products of Saccharomyces cerevisiae...
Cell cycle progression is controlled in part by a family of cyclin proteins and cyclin dependent kinases (Cdks). Cdk proteins work in concert with the...
Cadherins comprise a family of Ca++-dependent adhesion molecules that function to mediate cell-cell binding critical to the maintenance of tissue structure...
Cyclin dependent kinases are positively regulated by association with cyclins and negatively regulated by binding to inhibitory subunits. The activity of...
CD79 (also designated Ig (alpha)/Ig (beta)) is a heterodimer composed of (alpha) chains, designated CD79A or MB-1, and (beta) chains, designated CD79B or...
The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family is composed of several type I integral membrane glycoproteins that exhibit homology in their cystine-rich...
CD69 is a disulfide linked transmembrane homodimer whose differentially glycosylated subunits range from 35-39 kDa. It is a C type lectin, most closely...
CD59 is a GPI-anchored glycoprotein that is expressed on leukocytes, vascular endothelial cells, various epithelial cells and placenta. CD59 acts together...
CD47 is an integral membrane protein that plays a role in the regulation of cation fluxes across cell membranes. Specifically, CD47 is involved in the...
The macrophage class A scavenger receptors (SR-A) type I and II mediate the uptake of modified low density lipoprotein (LDL), while the scavenger receptor...
CD33 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is found on granulocyte and macrophage precursors in the bone marrow, but is absent from pluripotent stem...
The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family is composed of several type I integral membrane glycoproteins that exhibit homology in their cysteine-rich...
CD9 is a type IV transmembrane glycoprotein with four transmembrane domains. CD9 on pre-B cells may play a role in cell-cell adhesion. In addition, CD9 may...
Probable role in assembly and expression of the TCR complex as well as signal transduction upon antigen triggering. The TCR/CD3 complex of T-lymphocytes...
Strongly expressed in human liver and pancreas, with weaker expression in heart and brain, the cytoplasmic protein cystathionine b-synthase (CBS) operates in...
A unique family of Cysteine proteases has been described that differs in sequence, structure and substrate specificity from any previously described protease...
