By analyzing ESTs for cardiac muscle-specific transcripts, followed by screening heart cDNA libraries and 5-prime RACE, Soejima et al. (2001) cloned 4 splice...
The receptor for PDGF, PDGFR is classified as a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), a type of cell surface receptor. Two types of PDGFRs have been identified:...
Two types of PDGFRs have been identified: alpha type and beta type PDGFRs. The alpha type binds to PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB while the beta type PDGFR...
Platelet-derived growth factor subunit B is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor family. The four members of this family are mitogenic factors for...
The Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) family consists of proteins derived from four genes (PDGF-A, -B, -C and -D) that form four disulfide-linked...
Platelet-derived growth factor D is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor family. The four members of this family are mitogenic factors for cells of...
PDGFRb is a cell surface tyrosine kinase receptor for members of the platelet-derived growth factor family. These growth factors are mitogens for cells of...
PDGFRL is a protein with significant sequence similarity to the ligand binding domain of platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta. Mutations in this...
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial matrix multienzyme complex that provides the primary link between glycolysis and the...
Koike et al. (1988) cloned and sequenced cDNAs encoding the alpha and the beta subunits. Theoretically, there may be 2 forms of pyruvate dehydrogenase...
Protein disulfide isomerase or PDI is an enzyme in the endoplasmic reticulum in eukaryotes that catalyzes the formation and breakage of disulfide bonds...
The PDIA3 protein has protein disulfide isomerase activity. PDIA3 is also part of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I peptide-loading complex...
Protein Disulfide Isomerase A5is an enzyme in the endoplasmic reticulum in eukaryotes or periplasmic space of prokaryotes that catalyzes the formation and...
Protein disulfide isomerases, such as PDIA6, are endoplasmic reticulum resident proteins that catalyze formation, reduction, and isomerization of disulfide...
The LIM domain of PDLIM1 interacts with the C-terminal EF-hand region of alpha-actinin-2 (ACTN2). Immunoprecipitation, Western blot analysis, and...
Podoplanin is a type-I integral membrane glycoprotein with diverse distribution in human tissues. The physiological function of this protein may be related...
Pyridoxal (pyridoxine, vitamin B6) kinase is also known as PDXK. The protein encoded by this gene phosphorylates vitamin B6, a step required for the...
The Pseudomonas exotoxin (or exotoxin A) is an exotoxin produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It inhibits elongation factor-2. It does so by ADP-ribosylation...
RKIP cDNA encodes a protein of 186 amino acids, the sequence of which is 95% identical to the bovine 21- to 23-kD protein. The rat protein shows 85.5%...
CD31 is a cluster of differentiation molecule. It is also called PECAM-1 for platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule. It plays a key role in removing...
