  3. Immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoreceptor_tyrosine...

    ITIMs have similar structures of S/I/V/LxYxxI/V/L, where x is any amino acid, Y is a tyrosine residue that can be phosphorylated, S is the amino acid serine, I is the amino acid isoleucine, and V is the amino acid valine. [3] ITIMs recruit SH2 domain-containing phosphatases, which inhibit cellular activation.

  4. Amino acid neurotransmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acid_neurotransmitter

    An amino acid neurotransmitter is an amino acid which is able to transmit a nerve message across a synapse. Neurotransmitters (chemicals) are packaged into vesicles that cluster beneath the axon terminal membrane on the presynaptic side of a synapse in a process called endocytosis .

  5. Protease inhibitor (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protease_inhibitor_(biology)

    In 2004 Rawlings and colleagues introduced a classification of protease inhibitors based on similarities detectable at the level of amino acid sequence. [4] This classification initially identified 48 families of inhibitors that could be grouped into 26 related superfamily (or clans) by their structure.

  6. Antimicrobial peptides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimicrobial_peptides

    Antimicrobial peptides are generally between 12 and 50 amino acids. These peptides include two or more positively charged residues provided by arginine , lysine or, in acidic environments, histidine , and a large proportion (generally >50%) of hydrophobic residues.

  7. Immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoreceptor_tyrosine...

    The motif contains a tyrosine separated from a leucine or isoleucine by any two other amino acids, giving the signature YxxL/I. [1] Two of these signatures are typically separated by between 6 and 8 amino acids in the cytoplasmic tail of the molecule (YxxL/Ix (6-8) YxxL/I). However, in various sources, this consensus sequence differs, mainly in ...

  8. Metalloprotease inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalloprotease_inhibitor

    TIMPs consist of 184-194 amino acids. These inhibitors are subdivided into two domains N-terminal and C-terminal. [19] The N-terminal regions of the four TIMPs share a common structure. They all contain twelve cysteine residues that form six disulfide bonds. These bonds are critical for the conformation of the N-terminal and its MMP-inhibitory ...
