| 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) |

| intestinal calcium-binding protein | <protein> Calcium-binding proteins containing the EF hand motif, induced by vitamin D3. (18 Nov 1997) |
| iron-binding capacity | The capacity of iron-binding protein in serum (transferrin) to bind serum iron. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 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) |
| testosterone-oestrogen-binding globulin | A glycoprotein migrating as a beta-globulin. Its molecular weight, 52,000 or 95,000-115,000, indicates that it exists as a dimer. The protein binds testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, and estradiol in the plasma. Changes in its concentration significantly affect the ratio of unbound (biologically active) testosterone to estradiol in plasma. (12 Dec 1998) |
| thyroid binding globulin | <protein> Thyroid binding globulin (TBG) is a plasma protein which binds the majority of thyroid hormone in the bloodstream. Bound thyroid hormone is inactive, only the unbound fraction (0.3%) is considered active. Birth control pills and pregnancy can lead to increased TBG levels in the plasma. Androgens can decrease TBG levels in the plasma. (27 Sep 1997) |
| thyroxine-binding globulin | 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) |
| 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) |
| thyroxine-binding proteins | A group of proteins that includes thyroxine-binding globulin, a glycoprotein that serves as the major and specific carrier of thyroxine in plasma, accounting for 70-75% of the bound thyroxine; thyroxine-binding prealbumin, an albumin that serves as the secondary carrier, accounting for between 20 and 25% of the bound thyroxine; and serum albumin, which accounts for the remaining bound thyroxine.
