Rabaptin
Rabaptin is a key protein involved in regeneration of injured axons. Regeneration of injured axons at neuromuscular junctions is regulated by extra-cellular protein factors that promote neurite outgrowth. A novel neurite outgrowth factor from chick denervated skeletal muscle has been cloned and characterised. The protein, termed neurocrescin (rabaptin), has been shown to be secreted in an activity-dependent fashion. Rabaptin is a 100kDa coiled-coil protein that interacts with the GTP form of the small GTPase Rab5 (see RAB5A, RAB5B, RAB5C) a potent regulator of endocytic transport. It is mainly cytosolic, but a fraction co-localises with Rab5 to early endosomes. Rab5 recruits rabaptin-5 to purified early endosomes in a GTP-dependent manner, demonstrating functional similarities with other members of the Ras family. Immunodepletion of rabaptin-5 from cytosol strongly inhibits Rab5-dependent early endosome membrane fusion. Thus, rabaptin-5 is a Rab effector required for m ...

AP1G1
AP-1 complex subunit gamma-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''AP1G1'' gene. Function Adaptins are important components of clathrin-coated vesicles transporting ligand-receptor complexes from the plasma membrane or from the trans-Golgi network to lysosomes. The adaptin family of proteins is composed of four classes of molecules named alpha, beta-, beta prime- and gamma- adaptins. Adaptins, together with medium and small subunits, form a heterotetrameric complex called an adaptor, whose role is to promote the formation of clathrin-coated pits and vesicles. The protein encoded by this gene is a gamma-adaptin protein and it belongs to the adaptor complexes large subunits family. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Interactions AP1G1 has been shown to interact with: * AP1B1, * AP1GBP1, * AP1M1, * AP1S1, * NECAP2, * RABEP1 Rab GTPase-binding effector protein 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by t ...

GGA1
ADP-ribosylation factor-binding protein GGA1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''GGA1'' gene. This gene encodes a member of the Golgi-localized, gamma adaptin ear-containing, ARF-binding (GGA) protein family. Members of this family are ubiquitous coat proteins that regulate the trafficking of proteins between the trans-Golgi network and the lysosome. These proteins share an amino-terminal VHS domain which mediates sorting of the mannose 6-phosphate receptors at the trans-Golgi network. They also contain a carboxy-terminal region with homology to the ear domain of gamma-adaptins. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Interactions GGA1 has been shown to interact with Sortilin 1, BACE2, RABEP1 Rab GTPase-binding effector protein 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ''RABEP1'' gene.

GGA2
ADP-ribosylation factor-binding protein GGA2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''GGA2'' gene. Function This gene encodes a member of the Golgi-localized, gamma adaptin ear-containing, ARF-binding (GGA) family. This family includes ubiquitous coat proteins that regulate the trafficking of proteins between the trans-Golgi network and the lysosome. These proteins share an amino-terminal VHS domain which mediates sorting of the mannose 6-phosphate receptors at the trans-Golgi network. They also contain a carboxy-terminal region with homology to the ear domain of gamma-adaptins. This family member may play a significant role in cargo molecules regulation and clathrin-coated vesicle assembly. Interactions GGA2 has been shown to interact with RABEP1, Sortilin 1, BACE2 Beta-secretase 2 (, also known as Memapsin-1) is an enzyme that cleaves Glutamic acid, Glu-Valine, Val-Asparagine, Asn-Leucine, Leu-, -Aspartic acid, Asp-Ala-Glu-Phe in the Swedish variant of Alzheim ...

Enzyme
An enzyme () is a protein that acts as a biological catalyst by accelerating chemical reactions. The molecules upon which enzymes may act are called substrate (chemistry), substrates, and the enzyme converts the substrates into different molecules known as product (chemistry), products. Almost all metabolism, metabolic processes in the cell (biology), cell need enzyme catalysis in order to occur at rates fast enough to sustain life. Metabolic pathways depend upon enzymes to catalyze individual steps. The study of enzymes is called ''enzymology'' and the field of pseudoenzyme, pseudoenzyme analysis recognizes that during evolution, some enzymes have lost the ability to carry out biological catalysis, which is often reflected in their amino acid sequences and unusual 'pseudocatalytic' properties. Enzymes are known to catalyze more than 5,000 biochemical reaction types. Other biocatalysts include Ribozyme, catalytic RNA molecules, also called ribozymes. They are sometimes descr ...

Gene
In biology, the word gene has two meanings. The Mendelian gene is a basic unit of heredity. The molecular gene is a sequence of nucleotides in DNA that is transcribed to produce a functional RNA. There are two types of molecular genes: protein-coding genes and non-coding genes. During gene expression (the synthesis of Gene product, RNA or protein from a gene), DNA is first transcription (biology), copied into RNA. RNA can be non-coding RNA, directly functional or be the intermediate protein biosynthesis, template for the synthesis of a protein. The transmission of genes to an organism's offspring, is the basis of the inheritance of phenotypic traits from one generation to the next. These genes make up different DNA sequences, together called a genotype, that is specific to every given individual, within the gene pool of the population (biology), population of a given species. The genotype, along with environmental and developmental factors, ultimately determines the phenotype ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
