Description Human PLGF involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis. The GPI-anchor, a glycolipid containing three mannose molecules in its core backbone, is found on many blood cells where it serves to...
Bcakground Prolactin (gene name PRL) is a secreted neuroendocrine pituitary hormone that acts primarily on the mammary gland to promote lactation, but has pleiotropic effects in both males and females...
Prothrombin (coagulation factor II) is proteolytically cleaved to form thrombin in the clotting process. Thrombin in turn acts as a serine protease that converts soluble fibrinogen into insoluble strands of...
Bcakground R-Spondin 1 (RSPO1), also known as cysteine-rich and single thrombospondin domain containing protein 3 (Cristin 3), is a 27 kDa secreted protein that shares ~40% amino acid (aa) identity...
Human Renin is an aspartic protease that is secreted by the kidneys. Renin is a part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system involved in regulation of blood pressure, and electrolyte balance. This...
Bcakground Stem cell factor (SCF)is a potent hematopoietic growth factor required in regulating both embryonic and adult hematopoiesis. SCF protein promotes the survival, differentiation, and mobilization of multiple cell types...
The human Sftpd is part of the innate immune response, protecting the lungs against inhaled microorganisms and chemicals. The protein may also be involved in surfactant metabolism.
Bcakground Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) is expressed in embryonic tissues that are critical for the patterning of the developing central nervous system, somite, and limb. It is also involved in whisker,...
