| deficiency, protein c | Protein C is a protein in plasma that enters into the cascade of biochemical events leading to the formation of a clot. Deficiency of protein C results in thrombotic (clotting) disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| denatured protein | A protein that, because ofheat or detergent application, has lost itsnative conformation. (09 Oct 1997) |
| derived protein | A derivative of protein effected by chemical change, e.g., hydrolysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dietary protein | <nutrition> Proteins present in food from plant and animal sources. Dietary proteins are significant in supplying the body with the nine essential amino acids that cannot be synthesised by humans and must be obtained in the diet. (12 Dec 1998) |
| diet, protein-restricted | A diet that contains limited amounts of protein. It is prescribed in some cases to slow the progression of renal failure. (12 Dec 1998) |
| DIS2 protein phosphatase | <enzyme> A type 1 protein phosphatase; involved in glycogen phosphorylase activation; interacts genetically with the ras-camp pathway; has been sequenced Registry number: EC 3.1.3.- Synonym: dis2 protein, dis2 gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| DNA-activated protein kinase | <enzyme> Nuclear serine-threonine protein kinase that phosphorylates DNA-binding proteins; may function in cell homeostasis Registry number: EC 2.7.10.- Synonym: DNA-pk, DNA-dependent protein serine-threonine kinase, DNA-dependent protein kinase, scid gene product, xrcc7 gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| DNA binding protein | <molecular biology> Proteins that interact with DNA, typically to pack or modify the DNA for example histones or to regulate gene expression, transcription factors. Among those proteins that recognise specific DNA sequences, there are a number of characteristic conserved motifs believed to be essential for specificity. (18 Nov 1997) |
| DNA-binding protein, cyclic AMP-responsive | A protein that has been shown to function as a calcium regulated transcription factor as well as a substrate for depolarisation-activated calcium calmodulin-dependent protein kinases I and II. This protein functions to integrate both calcium and camp signals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| DNA-protein interaction | <molecular biology> Any complex that forms between a protein molecule and DNA. Examples are nucleosomes (structures formed for the purpose of DNA storage) and any gene regulatory protein (a protein which regulates transcription by binding to a regulatory region on the DNA). (09 Oct 1997) |
| DNA unwinding protein | <molecular biology> A protein that will attach to single-stranded DNA after it has been unwound for replication or recombination, and help it stay unwound. (09 Oct 1997) |
| docking protein | Receptor for the signal recognition particle (SRP) found in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. Also called docking protein. Heterodimeric, both protomers having GTP binding capacity, though dissimilar binding sites. Not until the complex of SRP, ribosome, message and nascent polypeptide chain binds to the SRP receptor is the block to further chain elongation released and concurrently the SRP is released, leaving the ribosome attached to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Cotranslational transport of the polypeptide delivers it into the lumen of the ER. (18 Nov 1997) |
| dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide - protein glycotransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses transfer of oligosaccharides from exogenously supplied oligosaccharide lipids to the asparagine residue of synthetic asn-x-thr containing peptide acceptors; wbp1 encodes the beta-subunit; swp1 encodes the delta-subunit; ost1 encodes the alpha-subunit Registry number: EC 2.4.1.119 Synonym: dolichyldiphosphoryloligosaccharide-protein oligosaccharyltransferase, ddpos-pos transferase, oligosaccharyltransferase, oligosaccharide transferase, swp1 protein, wbp1 protein, ost50 protein, ost40 protein, ost1 protein, ost3 protein, ost4 protein, ost-48 protein, p60 age receptor, ost5 protein, ost2 protein (26 Jun 1999) |
| dolichyl-phosphate-mannose - protein mannosyltransferase | <enzyme> Dol-p-man is mannosyl donor to oh group of threonine or serine residues in proteins in fungi Registry number: EC 2.4.1.109 Synonym: protein o-mannosyltransferase, dol-p-man - protein o-d-mannosyltransferase, pmt1 protein, pmt2 protein, pmt3 protein, pmt4 protein (26 Jun 1999) |
| dried human plasma protein fraction | Freeze-dried human plasma protein fraction. (05 Mar 2000) |
