| calcium-dependent protein kinase | <enzyme> Mw 51,000; requires ca; not stimulated by calmodulin, phospholipids or diacylglycerol; phosphorylates casein and histones forming primarily phosphoserine and phosphothreonine, respectively Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- Synonym: paramecium ca-dependent protein kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
|---|---|
| calcium dependent regulator protein | <protein> (CDRP) Early name for calmodulin. (18 Nov 1997) |
| calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV kinase | <enzyme> Phosphorylates and activates cam-kinase iv; from brain Registry number: EC 2.7.10.- Synonym: cam-kinase iv kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
| cAMP receptor protein | catabolite (gene) activator protein |
| cap binding protein | <molecular biology, protein> Protein (24 kD) with affinity for cap structure at 5' end of mRNA that probably assists, together with other initiation factors, in binding the mRNA to the 40S ribosomal subunit. Translation of mRNA in vitro is faster if it has a cap binding protein. (18 Nov 1997) |
| p150 protein kinase | <enzyme> Mw 150 kD; forms a cellular complex with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; a homolog of vps15 protein kinase; amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| p21(ras) farnesyl-protein transferase | <enzyme> Transfers the farnesyl moiety from farnesyl pyrophosphate to a cysteine in p21(ras) proteins; composed of an alpha and a beta subunit Registry number: EC 2.5.1.- Synonym: farnesyl-protein transferase p21(ras), ras p21 farnesyl-protein transferase, protein-cysteine farnesyltransferase, pc farnesyltransferase, protein farnesyltransferase, p21(ras) farnesyltransferase, farnesyl-protein transferase-alpha, farnesyl-protein transferase-beta, ft alpha, ft beta, caax farnesyltransferase, ftase enzyme (26 Jun 1999) |
| P400 protein | <protein> Inositol 1,4, 5 triphosphate receptor (InsP3 R). Key protein to understanding mechanisms of InsP3 mediated Ca mobilisation. Originally found as a cerebellar glycoprotein of 250 kD and subsequently shown to be identical to the InsP3 receptor protein. (18 Nov 1997) |
| p54 protein kinase | <enzyme> A stress-activated kinase related to erk-1 and erk-2 but activated preferentially by heat shock, protein-synthesis inhibitors and thf-alpha; phosphorylates c-jun proteins; genbank l27111 Registry number: EC 2.7.10.- Synonym: p54 map kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
| gag protein | <molecular biology> The protein of the nucleocapsid shell around the RNA of a retrovirus. (18 Nov 1997) |
| galactose binding protein | <protein> A bacterial periplasmic protein, most studied in E. Coli, that acts both as a sensory element in the detection of galactose as a chemotactic signal and in the uptake of the sugar. (18 Nov 1997) |
| macrophage inflammatory protein | <cytokine> A chemokine that is chemotactic for neutrophils and monocytes, stimulates macrophages, and may play a role in regulating haematopoiesis. Its two variants, mip-1alpha and mip-1beta, are 60% homologous to each other. They are heparin-binding proteins that exhibit a number of inflammatory and immunoregulatory activities. Originally identified as secretory products of macrophages, these chemokines are produced by a variety of cell types including neutrophils, fibroblasts, and epithelial cells. They most likely also play a significant role in respiratory tract defenses. (20 Sep 2002) |
| Varciella-Zoster ORF47-associated protein kinase | <enzyme> Catalyses the in vitro phosphorylation of the vzv orf62 protein Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- Synonym: vzv orf47-apk (26 Jun 1999) |
| MAG protein | <protein> Myelin associated glycoprotein, one of the immunoglobulin superfamily. (18 Nov 1997) |
| palmitoyl-protein thioesterase | <enzyme> Cleaves palmitoyl-cysteine bond of proteins; genbank u44772; do not confuse with palmitoyl-acyl carrier protein thioesterase Registry number: EC 3.1.2.- Synonym: palmitoyl-ras thioesterase, protein palmitoyl thioesterase (26 Jun 1999) |
