InterPro is a database of protein families, protein domains and functional sites in which identifiable features found in known proteins can be applied to new protein sequences [2] in order to functionally characterise them.
InterPro In biochemistry and medicine , glycoprotein IIb/IIIa ( GPIIb/IIIa , also known as integrin α IIb β 3 ) is an integrin complex found on platelets . It is a transmembrane receptor for fibrinogen [ 1 ] and von Willebrand factor , and aids platelet activation .
The general purpose of the Pfam database is to provide a complete and accurate classification of protein families and domains. [5] Originally, the rationale behind creating the database was to have a semi-automated method of curating information on known protein families to improve the efficiency of annotating genomes. [6]
An armadillo repeat is a characteristic, repetitive amino acid sequence of about 42 residues in length that is found in many proteins. Proteins that contain armadillo repeats typically contain several tandemly repeated copies.
Example of an approximately 40,000 probe spotted oligo microarray with enlarged inset to show detail. Microarray analysis techniques are used in interpreting the data generated from experiments on DNA (Gene chip analysis), RNA, and protein microarrays, which allow researchers to investigate the expression state of a large number of genes – in many cases, an organism's entire genome – in a ...
The transmembrane cation channel superfamily was defined in InterPro and Pfam as the family of tetrameric ion channels.These include the sodium, potassium, [1] calcium, ryanodine receptor, HCN, CNG, CatSper, and TRP channels.
InterPro Dimethylallyltranstransferase ( DMATT ), also known as farnesylpyrophosphate synthase ( FPPS ) or as farnesyldiphosphate synthase ( FDPS ), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FDPS gene and catalyzes the transformation of dimethylallylpyrophosphate (DMAPP) and isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) into farnesylpyrophosphate (FPP).
The Hepatitis B virus (HBV) polymerase is a multifunctional enzyme, with both RNA-dependent and DNA-dependent polymerase functions, as well as an RNase H function. It acts on the HBV pre-genomic RNA (pgRNA) to reverse transcribe it to form a new rcDNA molecule within a new capsid.
