AMY-101 (Cp40), a peptidic inhibitor of the central complement component C3 (KD = 0.5 nM), inhibits naturally occurring periodontitis in non-human primates (NHPs). AMY-101 (Cp40) exhibits a favorable anti-inflammatory activity in models with COVID-19 severe pneumonia with systemic hyper inflammation.

CSRP2 is a member of the CSRP family of genes, encoding a group of LIM domain proteins, which may be involved in regulatory processes important for development and cellular differentiation. CRP2 contains two copies of the cysteine-rich amino acid sequence motif (LIM) with putative zinc-binding activity, and may be involved in regulating ordered cell growth. Other genes in the family include CSRP1 and CSRP3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 214]

Dalazatide (ShK-186) TFA is a specific Kv1.3 potassium channel peptide inhibitor. Dalazatide TFA can be used in the study of autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes and inflammatory bowel disease.

The cystatin superfamily encompasses proteins that contain multiple cystatin-like sequences. Some of the members are active cysteine protease inhibitors, while others have lost or perhaps never acquired this inhibitory activity. There are three inhibitory families in the superfamily, including the type 1 cystatins (stefins), type 2 cystatins, and kininogens. This gene encodes a stefin that functions as a cysteine protease inhibitor, forming tight complexes with papain and the cathepsins B, H, and L. The protein is one of the precursor proteins of cornified cell envelope in keratinocytes and plays a role in epidermal development and maintenance. Stefins have been proposed as prognostic and diagnostic tools for cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 28]

Pinealon is a 3-amino acid peptide and shows neuroprotective properties. Pinealon prevents reactive oxygenspecies (ROS) accumulation and supressesthe activation of ERK 1/2. Pinealon has the ability to stimulate the functional activity of the main cellular elements of brain tissue, reduce the level of spontaneous cell death. Pinealon protects the rat offspring from prenatal hyperhomocysteinemia.

The cystatin superfamily encompasses proteins that contain multiple cystatin-like sequences. Some of the members are active cysteine protease inhibitors, while others have lost or perhaps never acquired this inhibitory activity. There are three inhibitory families in the superfamily, including the type 1 cystatins (stefins), type 2 cystatins and kininogens. This gene encodes a stefin that functions as an intracellular thiol protease inhibitor. The protein is able to form a dimer stabilized by noncovalent forces, inhibiting papain and cathepsins l, h and b. The protein is thought to play a role in protecting against the proteases leaking from lysosomes. Evidence indicates that mutations in this gene are responsible for the primary defects in patients with progressive myoclonic epilepsy (EPM1). One type of mutation responsible for EPM1 is the expansion in the promoter region of this gene of a CCCCGCCCCGCG repeat from 2-3 copies to 3-78 copies. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 216]

AC 187 is a potent and orally active amylin receptor antagonist with an IC50 of 0.48 nM and a Ki of 0.275 nM. AC 187 shows more selective for amylin receptor than calcitonin and CGRP receptors. AC 187 has neuroprotective effects.

This gene encodes one of three subunits which combine to form cleavage stimulation factor (CSTF). CSTF is involved in the polyadenylation and 3end cleavage of pre-mRNAs. Similar to mammalian G protein beta subunits, this protein contains transducin-like repeats. Several transcript variants with different 5 UTR, but encoding the same protein, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 28]

Contulakin G is an O-glycosylated invertebrate neurotensin. Contulakin-G is a weaker agonist for the neurotensin receptor. Contulakin G is also a potent antinociceptive agent.

Lecirelin, a synthetic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue, acts as a GnRH agonist. Lecirelin is widely used for the research of bovine ovarian follicular cysts.

This gene encodes a protein that binds to the C-terminus of adenovirus E1A proteins. This phosphoprotein is a transcriptional repressor and may play a role during cellular proliferation. This protein and the product of a second closely related gene, CTBP2, can dimerize. Both proteins can also interact with a polycomb group protein complex which participates in regulation of gene expression during development. Alternative splicing of transcripts from this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 28]
