aP2 (adipocyte Protein 2) [5] is a carrier protein for fatty acids that is primarily expressed in adipocytes and macrophages. aP2 is also called fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4). Blocking this protein either through genetic engineering or drugs [6] has the possibility of treating heart disease and the metabolic syndrome. [7]
SAR1A or Sar1 is a protein involved in membrane trafficking. It is a monomeric small GTPase found in COPII vesicles. It regulates the assembly and disassembly of COPII coats.
Latrophilin 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ADGRL3 gene.
Fatty acid binding protein 7, brain, is a human gene.
Fatty acid binding protein 6, ileal (gastrotropin), also known as FABP6, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the FABP6 gene.
EH-domain containing 2, also known as EHD2, is a human gene belonging to the EHD protein family.
Synaptotagmin-7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SYT7 gene.
BTB/POZ domain-containing protein KCTD13 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KCTD13 gene.
60S ribosomal protein L10-like is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RPL10L gene.
Interleukin 34 (IL-34) is a protein belonging to a group of cytokines called interleukins. It was originally identified in humans, by large scale screening of secreted proteins; chimpanzee, murine, rat and chicken interleukin 34 orthologs have also been found. The protein is composed of 241 amino acids, 39 kilodaltons in mass, and forms homodimers. IL-34 increases growth or survival of immune cells known as monocytes; it elicits its activity by binding the Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor.
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase 2 (mitochondrial) is an enzyme in humans that is encoded by the HMGCS2 gene.
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase ID is a protein in humans that is encoded by the CAMK1D gene on chromosome 10.
Ubiquitin-like 7 is a protein in humans that is encoded by the UBL7 gene.
Fatty acid binding protein 9, testis is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FABP9 gene.
Centrosomal protein 104kDa is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CEP104 gene. Like its Chlamydomonas ortholog, FAP256, it has been shown to localize to the distal ends of both centrioles in the absence of a cilium. During cilium formation, it is found at the tip of the elongating cilium.
Biliverdin reductase A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BLVRA gene.
RIMS binding protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RIMBP2 gene.
Cysteine dioxygenase type 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDO1 gene.
Retinol binding protein 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RBP7 gene.
Tubulin polymerization promoting protein family member 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TPPP3 gene.
NOVA alternative splicing regulator 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NOVA2 gene.
