ARNT2
20 November 2017WKP
Definition: Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARNT2 gene.
This gene encodes a member of the basic-helix-loop-helix-Per-Arnt-Sim (bHLH-PAS) superfamily of transcription factors.
The encoded protein acts as a partner for several sensor proteins of the bHLH-PAS family, forming heterodimers with the sensor proteins that bind regulatory DNA sequences in genes responsive to developmental and environmental stimuli.

β-Adrenergic receptor
29 August 2017β-Adrenergic receptor expression in vascular tumors (#22743651#)
Propranolol has recently emerged as an effective therapy for infantile hemangiomas causing regression.
The β-adrenergic receptor (AR) antagonist is thought to cause vasoconstriction by its effect on nitric oxide, block angiogenesis by its effect on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and induce apoptosis.
The expression of β2-AR (B2-AR) and its phosphorylated form (B2-ARP) have been identified in a case of infantile (...) -
ADAR2
20 August 2017Pathology
Metabolomic and Lipidomic Profiling Identifies The Role of the RNA Editing Pathway in Endometrial Carcinogenesis. ADAR2 is overexpressed in EC and that the increase in expression positively correlates with the aggressiveness of the tumor. Furthermore, silencing of ADAR2 in three EC cell lines resulted in a decreased proliferation rate, increased apoptosis, and reduced migration capabilities in vitro. ADAR2 functions as an oncogene in endometrial carcinogenesis and could be a (...) -
NADPH

See also : NADH
Definition: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, abbreviated NADP+ or, in older notation, TPN (triphosphopyridine nucleotide), is a cofactor used in anabolic reactions, such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis, which require NADPH as a reducing agent.
NADPH is the reduced form of NADP+. NADP+ differs from NAD+ in the presence of an additional phosphate group on the 2’ position of the ribose ring that carries the adenine moiety.
The major source of NADPH in (...) -

PDCD1LG2
19 June 2017PD-L2; B7-DC; PDL2 ; CD273 WKP
PD-L2 (or Programmed cell death 1 ligand 2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PDCD1LG2 gene. PDCD1LG2 has also been designated as CD273 (cluster of differentiation 273).

SATB2
15 June 2017WKP
Definition: Special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (SATB2) also known as DNA-binding protein SATB2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SATB2 gene.
SATB2 is a DNA-binding protein that specifically binds nuclear matrix attachment regions and is involved in transcriptional regulation and chromatin remodeling. *
