A protein family is a group of evolutionarily related proteins. In many cases, a protein family has a corresponding gene family, in which each gene encodes...

Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residues. Proteins perform a vast array of functions...

The Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome protein (WASp) is a 502-amino acid protein expressed in cells of the hematopoietic system that in humans is encoded by the...

typically encode functionally related proteins, and sometimes the term gene families is a shorthand for the sets of proteins that the genes encode. They may...

The DAZ (Deleted in AZoospermia) protein family is a group of three highly conserved RNA-binding proteins that are important in gametogenesis and meiosis...

The regenerating protein family often abbreviated as Reg family are a group of small secretory proteins that are involved in the proliferation and differentiation...

Cdx protein family is a group of the transcription factor proteins which bind to DNA to regulate the expression of genes. In particular this family of...

the integral membrane proteins appear to have evolved independently several times, and thus comprise different protein families. Like the ABC exporters...

The EHD protein family is a relatively small group of proteins which have been shown to play a role in several physiological functions, the most notable...

transmembrane protein is a type of integral membrane protein that spans the entirety of the cell membrane. Many transmembrane proteins function as gateways...
