A unique family of cysteine proteases has been described that differs in sequence, structure and substrate specificity from any previously described protease...
Valosin-containing protein (VCP or p97) belongs to the AAA (ATPase associated activities) family and acts as a molecular chaperone to a wide variety of...
Activation of TAL1 characterizes up to 60% of cases of human T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, making it the most frequent gain-of-function mutation...
Rad51 is a recombinase that is essential for homologous recombination and double-strand break repair. It binds to single and double-stranded DNA, and has...
The protein is a member of the nuclear factors of activated T cells DNA-binding transcription complex. This complex consists of at least two components: a...
c-Myb is the cellular homolog of the leukemogenic avian retroviral protein v-Myc. c-Myb is expressed predominantly in immature and rapidly dividing...
The expression of DUSP1 gene is induced in human skin fibroblasts by oxidative/heat stress and growth factors. It specifies a protein with structural...
MEF2C is a transcription activator which binds specifically to the MEF2 element present in the regulatory regions of many muscle-specific genes. This protein...
MAP kinase activated protein kinase 2 (MAPKAP Kinase 2), also known as p45 hsp27 kinase, is a 45-54 kDa serine/threonine protein kinase that contains a...
The c-Fos oncogene was initially detected in two independent murine osteosarcoma virus isolates and an avian nephroblastoma virus. The cellular homolog,...
eEF2K is 105 kDa protein that is detected in skeletal muscle extracts and is phosphorylated rapidly by SAPK4, but poorly by p38, p38(gamma), JNK or ERK 2....
The Claudin superfamily consists of many structurally related proteins in humans. These proteins are important structural and functional components of tight...
Heterotrimeric G protein-mediated signal transduction is a dynamically regulated process with the intensity of signal decreasing over time despite the...
Members of the LDL receptor gene family, including LDLR (low density lipoprotein receptor), LRP1 (low density lipoprotein related protein), Megalin (also...
Src is the human homolog of the v-Src gene of the Rous sarcoma virus, also called avian sarcoma virus or ASV. Src was the first proto-oncogenic non-receptor...
Platelet-derived growth factor receptors exhibit tyrosine-protein kinase activity and have been implicated in the control of cell proliferation, survival and...
Overexpression of Vav or SLP-76 in Jurkat cells leads to NFAT activation and IL-2 production. When co-expressed, Vav and SLP-76 synergize to induce a robust...
LAT, a transmembrane adaptor protein expressed in T, NK and mast cells, is an important mediator for T cell receptor (TCR) signaling. Upon TCR engagement,...
The vitamin D receptor (VDR), also known as the calcitriol receptor, and also known as NR1I1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group I, member 1), is a member...
The major translational products of each of the eight members of the Src gene family identified to date are membrane-associated tyrosine protein kinases that...
