The DNA repair proteins Rad50, Rad51A-D, Rad52 and Rad54 A and B are key components of the double-strand break repair pathway (DSBR). The process of...
Several proteins have been identified as specific markers of prostate cancer, and they may be useful as diagnostic indicators. PSA, prostate specific...
MGMT (O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase) is transcriptionally activated in response to DNA damage and functions to repair mutagenic and cytotoxic...
Galectins are a family of soluble (beta)-galactoside-binding animal lectins that modulate cell-to-cell adhesion and cell-to-extracellular matrix (ECM)...
The Bcl-2 gene was isolated at the chromosomal breakpoint of t-bearing follicular B cell lymphomas. Bcl-2 blocks cell death following a variety of stimuli...
Comparative evaluation of the expression patterns of the human and mouse genes, combined with previous biochemical and yeast genetic studies, indicate that...
MYH (mutY homolog (E. coli )) is a DNA glycosylase mismatch repair enzyme that in conjunction with mutM (OGG1), cleaves adenine residues paired with either...
Mucosa Associated Lymphoid Tissue lymphoma translocation gene 1 (MALT1) is found in extranodal low-grade B-cell lymphomas. MALT1 encodes two Iglike C2-type...
Dio-1 (Death Inducer-Obliterator-1) is a putative transcription factor that contains two zinc finger motifs. Dio-1 translocates to the nucleus, and activates...
Using a PCR-based strategy, an additional protein with life-promoting activity, designated Bcl-w, has been identified. The protein is highly conserved...
Laminins are essential and abundant structural non-collagenous glycoproteins localizing to basement membranes. Basement membranes (cellassociated...
Individuals harboring germline mutations in the tumor suppressor gene von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) exhibit an increased susceptibility to a variety of tumors...
Galectins are a family of soluble (beta)-galactoside-binding animal lectins that modulate cell-to-cell adhesion and cell-to-extracellular matrix (ECM)...
Eukaryotic DNA ligases are ATP-dependent enzymes that catalyse the joining of single and double-strand DNA breaks, which is an essential final step in DNA...
Adducins are a family of cytoskeleton proteins encoded by three genes ((alpha), (beta) and (gamma)). Adducin is a protein associated with the inner leaflet...
The extensive family of COL gene products (collagens) is composed of several chain types, including fibril-forming interstitial collagens (types I, II, III...
This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions...
P450 enzymes constitute a family of monooxygenase enzymes that are involved in the metabolism of a wide array of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. P450...
