GR 64349 is a potent and highly selective NK2 receptor peptide antagonist, with an EC50 of 3.7 nM in rat colon. GR 64349 exhibits selectivity >1000 and >300-fold with respect to NK1 and NK3 receptors, respectively.

This gene encodes a hydrolase that degrades glycosaminoglycans, including heparan sulfate, dermatan sulfate, and chondroitin-4,6-sulfate. The enzyme forms a homotetramer that is localized to the lysosome. Mutations in this gene result in mucopolysaccharidosis type VII. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. There are many pseudogenes of this locus in the human genome.[provided by RefSeq, May 214]

IDR-1 is an antimicrobial peptide that is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. IDR-1 counters infection by selective modulation of innate immunity without obvious toxicities. IDR-1 has anti-inflammatory and anti-infective properties, enhances the levels of monocyte chemokines, and attenuates pro-inflammatory cytokine release.

This gene encodes a member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein, which plays a role in bone growth, muscle development and regeneration, and collagen fibril assembly in multiple tissues. This protein may also regulate inflammation and innate immunity. Additionally, the encoded protein may contribute to atherosclerosis and aortic valve stenosis in human patients. This gene and the related gene decorin are thought to be the result of a gene duplication. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 215]

Fmoc-Phe(2-Cl)-OH is a phenylalanine derivative.

Bleomycin hydrolase (BMH) is a cytoplasmic cysteine peptidase that is highly conserved through evolution; however, the only known activity of the enzyme is metabolic inactivation of the glycopeptide bleomycin (BLM), an essential component of combination chemotherapy regimens for cancer. The protein contains the signature active site residues of the cysteine protease papain superfamily. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 28]

HUN-7293 is a cell adhesion molecule inhibitor. HUN-7293 selectively inhibits the expression of three cell adhesion molecules (VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and E-selectin) (IC50=1-24 nM). HUN-7293 can be used in the study of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases characterized by overexpression of cell adhesion molecules.

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the biliverdin reductase family, members of which catalyze the conversion of biliverdin to bilirubin in the presence of NADPH or NADH. Mutations in this gene are associated with hyperbiliverdinemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 211]

Fmoc-Ser-Obzl is a serine derivative.

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are a family of zinc metalloenzymes. For background information on the CA family, see MIM 1148.[supplied by OMIM, Mar 28]

LH-RH (7-10) is a tetrapeptide, one of major degradation products of luteinising-hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) via pituitary and hypothalamus. LH-RH (7-10) produced in macrophages, type I-like and type II pneumocytes.

The protein encoded by this gene was initially named CA-related protein because of sequence similarity to other known carbonic anhydrase genes. However, the gene product lacks carbonic anhydrase activity (i.e., the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide). The gene product continues to carry a carbonic anhydrase designation based on clear sequence identity to other members of the carbonic anhydrase gene family. The absence of CA8 gene transcription in the cerebellum of the lurcher mutant in mice with a neurologic defect suggests an important role for this acatalytic form. Mutations in this gene are associated with cerebellar ataxia, mental retardation, and dysequilibrium syndrome 3 (CMARQ3). Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with osteoporosis, and overexpression of this gene in osteosarcoma cells suggests an oncogenic role. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 216]
