unusual facts about protein complex



Arfaptin

In molecular biology, the arfaptin domain is a protein domain which interacts with ARF1, a small GTPase involved in vesicle budding at the Golgi complex and immature secretory granules.

BEN domain

SMAR1 (Scaffold/Matrix attachment region-binding protein 1; also known as BANP), a tumour-suppressor MAR-binding protein that down-regulates Cyclin D1 expression by recruiting HDAC1-mSin3A co-repressor complex at Cyclin D1 promoter locus; SMAR1 is the target of prostaglandin A2 (PGA2) induced growth arrest.

Biskit

building on the library, a set of programs for solving specific tasks, for example, the automatic prediction of Protein structures by Homology modeling or (an attempt at) the prediction of Protein complex structures through flexible Protein-protein docking

MRX complex

The MRX complex is a heterotrimeric protein complex consisting of Mre11, Rad50, and Xrs2.

DNA damage-binding protein

DNA damage-binding protein is a protein complex that is responsible for repair of UV-damaged DNA.

Iain Cheeseman

He recently demonstrated a critical and direct role for a protein complex called Ndc80 (coded for by the gene NDC80) in directly associating with microtubules.

Long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency

Mutations in the HADHA gene lead to inadequate levels of an enzyme called long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenase, which is part of a protein complex known as mitochondrial trifunctional protein.

Tuberous sclerosis protein

Tuberous sclerosis proteins 1 and 2, also known as TSC1 (hamartin) and TSC2 (tuberin), form a protein-complex.

WHSC2

This protein has also been shown to be a member of the NELF (negative elongation factor) protein complex that participates in the regulation of RNA polymerase II transcription elongation.
