| single stranded binding protein | <protein> SSB's are proteins responsiblefor holding the replication fork of DNAopen while polymerases readthe templates. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| Nuclear actin binding protein | <molecular biology> Nuclear protein, dimer of 34 kD subunits. Binds actin with Kd of around 25M. (18 Nov 1997) |
| 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) |
| insulin-like growth-factor binding protein 1 | One of the six homologous proteins that specifically bind insulin-like growth factors (somatomedins) and modulate their mitogenic and metabolic actions. The function of this protein is not completely defined. However, several studies demonstrate that it inhibits igf binding to cell surface receptors and thereby inhibits igf-mediated mitogenic and cell metabolic actions. (proc soc exp biol med 1993;204(1):4-29) (12 Dec 1998) |
| insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 2 | One of the six homologous soluble proteins that bind insulin-like growth factors (somatomedins) and modulate their mitogenic and metabolic actions at the cellular level. (12 Dec 1998) |
| insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 | One of the six homologous soluble proteins that bind insulin-like growth factors (somatomedins) and modulate their mitogenic and metabolic actions at the cellular level. (12 Dec 1998) |
| insulin like growth-factor-binding protein 4 | One of the six homologous soluble proteins that bind insulin-like growth factors (somatomedins) and modulate their mitogenic and metabolic actions at the cellular level. (12 Dec 1998) |
| insulin-like growth-factor-binding-protein 5 | One of the six homologous soluble proteins that bind insulin-like growth factors (somatomedins) and modulate their mitogenic and metabolic actions at the cellular level. (12 Dec 1998) |
| insulin-like-growth-factor-binding protein 6 | One of the six homologous soluble proteins that bind insulin-like growth factors (somatomedins) and modulate their mitogenic and metabolic actions at the cellular level. (12 Dec 1998) |
| intestinal calcium-binding protein | <protein> Calcium-binding proteins containing the EF hand motif, induced by vitamin D3. (18 Nov 1997) |
| octamer binding protein | <protein> Transcription factor that binds to the octamer motif. Examples: mammalian proteins Oct 1, Oct 2. (18 Nov 1997) |
| odourant binding protein | Proteins in nasal mucus that bind lipophilic odour-producing molecules and transfer them to the olfactory receptors. Similar proteins may mediate taste. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thyroxine-binding protein | An alpha-globulin of blood with a strong binding affinity for thyroxine; triiodothyronine is bound to it much less firmly; a deficiency or excess of this protein may occur as a rare benign X-linked disorder. Synonym: thyroxine-binding protein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty acid binding protein | A fatty acid-binding protein that participates in the intracellular movement of fatty acids. Synonym: fatty acid binding protein. (05 Mar 2000) |
