Description:
Constitutively active protein kinase that acts as a negative regulator in the hormonal control of glucose homeostasis, Wnt signaling and regulation of transcription factors and microtubules, by phosphorylating and inactivating glycogen synthase (GYS1 or GYS2), CTNNB1/beta-catenin, APC and AXIN1. Requires primed phosphorylation of the majority of its substrates. Contributes to insulin regulation of glycogen synthesis by phosphorylating and inhibiting GYS1 activity and hence glycogen synthesis. Regulates glycogen metabolism in liver, but not in muscle. May also mediate the development of insulin resistance by regulating activation of transcription factors. In Wnt signaling, regulates the level and transcriptional activity of nuclear CTNNB1/beta-catenin. Facilitates amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing and the generation of APP-derived amyloid plaques found in Alzheimer disease. May be involved in the regulation of replication in pancreatic beta-cells. Is necessary for the establishment of neuronal polarity and axon outgrowth. Through phosphorylation of the anti-apoptotic protein MCL1, may control cell apoptosis in response to growth factors deprivation.

Description:
CD8 is a cell surface receptor expressed either as a heterodimer with the CD8 β chain (CD8 α/β) or as a homodimer (CD8 α/α). A majority of thymocytes and a subpopulation of mature T cells and NK cells express CD8a. CD8 binds to MHC class 1 and through its association with protein tyrosine kinase p56lck plays a role in T cell development and activation of mature T cells. For mature T-cells, CD4 and CD8 are mutually exclusive, so anti-CD8, generally used in conjunction with anti-CD4. It is a useful marker for distinguishing helper/inducer T-lymphocytes, and most peripheral T-cell lymphomas are CD4 /CD8-. Anaplastic large cell lymphoma is usually CD4 and CD8-, and in T-lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia, CD4 and CD8 are often co-expressed. CD8 is also found in littoral cell angioma of the spleen.

Description:
Disabled 1 (Dab1) is an 80 kDa protein that is encoded by the Disabled-1 gene locus which is mutated in scrambler and yotari mutant mice. Phenotypically, the mutation of this gene produces motor defects and ataxia, disruption of neuronal migration, and severe cerebellar hypoplasia. Dab1 is an intracellular adapter protein that functions in downstream signaling events initiated by the secreted protein reelin. Dab1 contains a phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain in the amino terminus. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Dab1 is increased by reelin binding to the Very Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor (VLDLR) and Apolipoprotein E Receptor 2 (ApoER2) through stimulation of Src family kinases. Src family kinase and c-Abl activities are themselves then stimulated by binding to tyrosine phosphorylated Dab1. Dab1 also mediates activation of Akt (PKB) by reelin resulting in inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK-3 beta) and decreased phosphorylation of the microtubule-associated protein, Tau. Dab1 serine 491 is phosphorylated in a Cdk5-dependent manner and regulates, likely indirectly, Reelin-induced signaling during neural cortex development.

Description:
BRP44L, also known as HSPC040 or CGI-129, is a 109 amino acid mitochondrial protein belonging to the UPF0041 family. The gene that encodes BRP44L maps to human chromosome 6. Making up nearly 6% of the human genome, chromosome 6 contains around 1,200 genes within 170 million base pairs of sequence. Deletion of a portion of the q arm of chromosome 6 is associated with early onset intestinal cancer suggesting the presence of a cancer susceptibility locus. Porphyria cutanea tarda is associated with chromosome 6 through the HFE gene which, when mutated, predisposes an individual to developing this porphyria. Notably, the PARK2 gene, which is associated with Parkinson's disease, and the genes encoding the major histocompatiblity complex proteins, which are key molecular components of the immune system and determine predisposition to rheumatic diseases, are also located on chromosome 6. Stickler syndrome, 21-hydroxylase deficiency and maple syrup urine disease are also associated with genes on chromosome 6. A bipolar disorder susceptibility locus has been identified on the q arm of chromosome 6.

Description:
Visfatin is a 55 kDa protein produced and secreted primarily by white adipose tissue. Recently, Visfatin was isolated from visceral fat deposits and shown to possess insulin-mimetic activity. Like insulin, Visfatin exerts hypoglycemic effects by interacting with the insulin receptor. The binding affinity of Visfatin for the insulin receptor is similar to that of insulin, but it does not compete with insulin, suggesting that the two proteins interact with different receptor sites. The circulating levels of Visfatin are much lower than those of insulin and are not affected by feeding, implying that the hypoglycemic effect of Visfatin may not be of physiological importance. The plasma Visfatin levels, like those of Leptin, correlate positively with the percent of body fat and increase during the development of obesity. Another similarity between Visfatin and Leptin is that their amino acid sequence is highly conserved across different mammalian species and shows no homology to any known protein. Receptors for both Leptin (Ob-R) and Visfatin (i.e. the insulin receptor) are expressed by neurons within the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus, a brain area that plays a pivotal role in the regulation of energy metabolism. Although the metabolic function of Visfatin is still unknown, it appears that this newly identified adipocytokine might play an important role, similar to that of Leptin, in the regulation of body weight, i.e. as an afferent signal reflecting excess body fat. Recombinant human Visfatin is a 52.5 kDa protein containing 465 amino acid residues (isoform 1).

C12orf23 (chromosome 12 open reading frame 23), also known as FLJ11721, FLJ13959 or MGC17943, is a 116 amino acid multi-pass membrane protein belonging to the UPF0444 family. C12orf23 is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 12, which encodes over 1,100 genes and comprises approximately 4.5% of the human genome. Chromosome 12 is associated with a number of skeletal deformities, including hypochondrogenesis, achondrogenesis and Kniest dysplasia. Noonan syndrome, which includes heart and facial developmental defects among the primary symptoms, is caused by a mutant form of PTPN11 gene product, SH-PTP2. Chromosome 12 is also home to a homeobox gene cluster which encodes crucial transcription factors for morphogenesis, and the natural killer complex gene cluster encoding C-type lectin proteins which mediate the NK cell response to MHC I interaction. Trisomy 12p leads to facial development defects, seizure disorders and a host of other symptoms varying in severity depending on the extent of mosaicism and is most severe in cases of complete trisomy.

Description:
This gene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase, which belongs to the insulin receptor superfamily. This protein comprises an extracellular domain, an hydrophobic stretch corresponding to a single pass transmembrane region, and an intracellular kinase domain. It plays an important role in the development of the brain and exerts its effects on specific neurons in the nervous system. This gene has been found to be rearranged, mutated, or amplified in a series of tumours including anaplastic large cell lymphomas, neuroblastoma, and non-small cell lung cancer. The chromosomal rearrangements are the most common genetic alterations in this gene, which result in creation of multiple fusion genes in tumourigenesis, including ALK (chromosome 2)/EML4 (chromosome 2), ALK/RANBP2 (chromosome 2), ALK/ATIC (chromosome 2), ALK/TFG (chromosome 3), ALK/NPM1 (chromosome 5), ALK/SQSTM1 (chromosome 5), LK/KIF5B (chromosome 10), ALK/CLTC (chromosome 17), ALK/TPM4 (chromosome 19), and ALK/MSN (chromosome X).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011].

Description:
Cyclic nucleotides are hydrolyzed and compartmentalized by a family of enzymes called phosphodieterases. In mammals at least 11 different families of PDEs can be discriminated (PDE1-11) based on their kinetic properties and inhibition to various pharmacological agents. Three different PDE1 genes have been identified (PDE1A, B, and C). PDE1A and PDE1B have higher affinity for cGMP than for cAMP, whereas PDE1C has high affinity for both cAMP and cGMP. The PDE1A gene family includes various proteins that differ from each other at amino and carboxy termini of the protein. There are three novel PDE1A variants so far identified (PDE1A1; PDE1A3 and PD1A5), PDE1A5 encodes a 519 residue protein , which is different from PDE1A1 by insertion of 14 amino acid residues at the carboxy terminal and is also different from PDE1A3 by a divergent at N-terminus. The tissue distribution of PDE1A is different from other PDE1 gene family members. In testis PDE1A is highly expressed but in different stages of developing germ cells.

Description:
Progesterone receptors (PRs) are nuclear hormone receptors of the NR3C class, which also includes mineralocorticoid, glucocorticoid and androgen receptors. They exist as homodimers coupled to Hsp90 or HMGB proteins, which are shed upon activation. The major signaling pathway used by progesterone receptors is via direct DNA binding and transcriptional regulation of target genes. They can also signal by binding to other proteins, mainly with transcription factors such as NF-κB, AP-1 or STAT. Progesterone receptors are found in the female reproductive tract, mammary glands, brain and pituitary gland and receptor expression is induced by estrogen. Well established functions of progesterone receptors include ovulation, implantation, mammary gland development and maintenance of pregnancy. In addition, progesterone, signaling through the progesterone receptor, increases the ventilatory response of the respiratory centers to carbon dioxide and decreases arterial and alveolar PCO2 in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and during pregnancy. The human gene encoding the progesterone receptor has been localized to 11q22.

Description:
Designed by Dr. Raymond Firestone, this rapid and efficient purge valve is designed to allow 100% replacement of air in reaction vessels with any desired gas. No mercury is used, no reducing valve is needed on the gas source, and no high-vacuum source is required. The valve also eliminates the need to watch manometers, hand-control gas flow, or install warning systems. Expensive gases are conserved as the flow can be cut to nearly zero when purging is complete. This economic valve makes it possible to run all reactions under nitrogen.
