| Description | Creatine kinase plays a key role in the energy metabolism of cells with intermittently high and fluctuating energy requirements. Examples of such cells include cardiac or skeletal muscle cells and neural tissues of brain and retina. The enzyme catalyzes the reversible transfer of the phosphoryl Creatine kinase plays a key role in the energy metabolism of cells with intermittently high and fluctuating energy requirements. Examples of such cells include cardiac or skeletal muscle cells and neural tissues of brain and retina. The enzyme catalyzes the reversible transfer of the phosphoryl group from phosphorylcreatine to ADP, in order to generate ATP. The molecular mass of the protein is found to be approximately 80 kDa Da. It is made up of 2 subunits, each having a molecular weight of 40 kDa ± 2000. The lighter subunit is present in larger amounts. Applications Creatine phosphokinase from bovine heart has been used to investigate whether endothelial cell growth is stimulated by ischemic hearts. Creatine phosphokinase from bovine heart has also been used to evaluate the effect of high but nontoxic dietary intake of copper and selenium on metabolism in calves. The product has been used for tATPase assay of myofibrillar protein isolated from rabbit. This assay evaluated the kinetic influence of bound creatine kinase (CK) on Ca2+-activated myosin ATPase. The product has also been used for the enzymatic hydrolysis of protein samples during tryptophan estimation by pyrolysis gas chromatography...

It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. Purity:>98%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description：Heme oxygenase (HMOX) is the rate limiting enzyme in heme catabolism. It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. The mechanism of HMOX is unique in that heme serves as the substrate of the enzyme and as the prosthetic group for the activation of iron-bound O2. HMOX activity is highest in spleen where senescent erythrocytes are sequestered and destroyed. Two isoforms, HMOX1 and HMOX2, are expressed in most tissues. HMOX1 is an inducible enzyme in response to heme, heavy metals, oxidative stress, cytokines, and many drugs. Whereas HMOX2 displays a constitutive expression. HMOX1 is expressed mainly in spleen, liver, and kidney, and HMOX2 is prominently expressed in the brain and testes. The increased expression of HMOX1 levels is related to a variety of pathological states, where it functions as a cytoprotective molecule through its by products. HMOX1 also plays important roles in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis...

It is a secreted phosphoglycoprotein that belongs to the clade F subfamily, serpin superfamily of proteinase inhibitors. The PEDF is a noninhibitory serpin with neurotrophic, anti-angiogenic, and anti-tumorigenic properties. It is synthesized as a 418 a.a. about 50kDa precursor that contains a 19 a.a. signal sequence and a 399 a.a. mature region that shows a pyroglutamate at Gln20. Like other serpins, it contains three β-sheets, 810 α-helices, and a C-terminal RCL (reactive center loop). Unlike other serpins with Ser protease inhibiting activity. PEDF has functions of inducing extensive neuronal differentiation in retinoblastoma cells, inhibiting of angiogenesis. As it does not undergo the S (stressed) to R (relaxed) conformational transition characteristic of active serpins, it exhibits no serine protease inhibitory activity. PEDF is researched as a therapeutic candidate for treatment of such conditions as choroidal neovascularization, heart disease, and cancer...

A35R gene is highly conserved among poxviruses and encodes a previously uncharacterized hydrophobic acidic protein. The A35R has little homology to any protein outside of poxviruses, suggesting a novel virulence mechanism.A35R could block some stage of antigen processing or presentation in infected cells or interfere with regulation of apoptosis. In addition, the A35R function may be required for growth in certain cell types, e.g., macrophage, in vivo. It localizes to factories where viral DNA is located and it was shown to be a constitutive transcriptional activator in a large-scale yeast two-hybrid study... Read More |
