The E2F transcription factors are essential for regulation of the cell cycle. Physiological E2F is a heterodimer composed of an E2F subunit together with a...
The inactive ternary complex of cyclin D/CDK4 and p27 Kip1 requires extracellular mitogenic stimuli for the release and degradation of p27 concomitant with a...
In eukaryotic cells, mitosis is initiated following the activation of a protein kinase known variously as maturation-promoting factor, M-phase specific...
Cyclin dependent kinases are positively regulated by association with cyclins and negatively regulated by binding to inhibitory subunits. The activity of...
Bad is a proapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family that promotes cell death by displacing Bax from binding to Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL. Survival factors, such as IL-3,...
Caspase 9 (also known as ICE like apoptotic protease 6 (ICE LAP6), apoptotic protease Mch6, and apoptotic protease activating factor 3 (Apaf3)) is a member...
Caspases are cysteine proteases, expressed as inactive precursors, that mediate apoptosis by proteolysis of specific substrates. Caspases have the ability to...
Caspase-6 (Mch2) is one of the major executioner caspases functioning in cellular apoptotic processes. Upon apoptotic stimulation, initiator caspases such as...
C/EBP alpha regulates gene expression in a variety of tissues including liver, adipose, lung and intestine. C/EBP alpha is a basic region/leucine zipper...
Brutons tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a member of the BTK/Tec family of cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases. Like other BTK family members, it contains a pleckstrin...
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...
Proteolytic cleavage of the Amyloid protein precursor (APP) gives rise to the beta-Amyloid and Amyloid A4 proteins, which are present in human platelets....
AMPKbeta1 is a member of the SNF1 kinase family. It is a heterotrimeric protein comprising of an alpha (catalytic), beta (non-catalytic) and gamma...
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) is a complex multifunctional enzyme system which catalyzes the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, the ratelimiting step...
The Abl oncogene was initially identified as the viral transforming gene of Abelson murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV). The major translational product of c-Abl...
WNK1 (WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1), also known as KDP (kinase deficient protein), PSK, erythrocyte 65 kDa protein (p65), HSN2, HSAN2 or PRKWNK1, is...
Three cell membrane receptor tyrosine kinases, Flt (also designated VEGF-R1), Flk-1 (also designated VEGF-R2) and Flt-4, putatively involved in the growth of...

Three cell membrane receptor tyrosine kinases, Flt (also designated VEGF-R1), Flk-1 (also designated VEGF-R2) and Flt-4, putatively involved in the growth of...
The Vav gene was originally identified on the basis of its oncogenic activation during the course of gene transfer assays. The major translational product of...
