PGRP-LF

Drosophila melanogaster

Peptidoglycan recognition protein LF (PGRP-LF) encodes a transmembrane receptor that prevents the spontaneous activation of the immune deficiency pathway receptor encoded by PGRP-LC.

Wbp2nl

Homo sapiens

WBP2NL is a sperm-specific WW domain-binding protein that promotes meiotic resumption and pronuclear development during oocyte fertilization (Wu et al., 2007 [PubMed 17289678]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

SLC2A14

Homo sapiens

Members of the glucose transporter (GLUT) family, including SLC2A14, are highly conserved integral membrane proteins that transport hexoses such as glucose and fructose into all mammalian cells. GLUTs show tissue and cell-type specific expression (Wu and Freeze, 2002 [PubMed 12504846]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

rsp-6

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity. Involved in gonad development and regulation of termination of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including PVDL and PVDR. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in bipolar disorder; clear cell renal cell carcinoma; and ovary epithelial cancer. Is an ortholog of human SRSF7 (serine and arginine rich splicing factor 7).

pam-1

Caenorhabditis elegans

Enables metalloaminopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including exit from meiosis; first cell cycle pseudocleavage; and regulation of reproductive process. Located in condensed chromosome; cytoplasm; and mitotic spindle pole. Expressed in amphid process; intestine; male-specific anatomical entity; nerve ring; and tail neurons. Is an ortholog of human NPEPPS (aminopeptidase puromycin sensitive).

Antxr1

Homo sapiens

This gene encodes a type I transmembrane protein and is a tumor-specific endothelial marker that has been implicated in colorectal cancer. The encoded protein has been shown to also be a docking protein or receptor for Bacillus anthracis toxin, the causative agent of the disease, anthrax. The binding of the protective antigen (PA) component, of the tripartite anthrax toxin, to this receptor protein mediates delivery of toxin components to the cytosol of cells. Once inside the cell, the other two components of anthrax toxin, edema factor (EF) and lethal factor (LF) disrupt normal cellular processes. Three alternatively spliced variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
