Interleukin-2

Cytokine produced by activated CD4-positive helper T-cells and to a lesser extend activated CD8-positive T-cells and natural killer (NK) cells that plays pivotal roles in the immune response and tolerance (PubMed:6438535). Binds to a rec...

Carboxylesterase 2

Hydrolyzes carboxylic ester bonds with relatively broad substrate specificity.

Sialidase-2

Cleaves milk oligosaccharide alpha-(2->3)-sialyllactose, but is inactive toward alpha-(2->6)-sialyllactose isomer. … Displays preference for alpha-(2->3)-sialylated GD1a and GT1B gangliosides over alpha-(2->8)-sialylated GD1b, in both monomeric forms and micelles.

Trypsin-2

In the ileum, may be involved in defensin processing, including DEFA5

Metallothionein-2

Metallothioneins have a high content of cysteine residues that bind various heavy metals; these proteins are transcriptionally regulated by both heavy metals and glucocorticoids

Stabilin-2

Phosphatidylserine receptor that enhances the engulfment of apoptotic cells. Hyaluronan receptor that binds to and mediates endocytosis of hyaluronic acid (HA). Also acts, in different species, as a primary systemic scavenger receptor fo...

Fibrillin-2

Fibrillin-2-containing microfibrils regulate the early process of elastic fiber assembly.

Calsequestrin-2

Can bind around 60 Ca(2+) ions. Regulates the release of lumenal Ca(2+) via the calcium release channel RYR2; this plays an important role in triggering muscle contraction.

Calmodulin-2

Calmodulin acts as part of a calcium signal transduction pathway by mediating the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels, aquaporins and other proteins through calcium-binding (PubMed:16760425, PubMed:26969752, PubMed:2716569...

Transgelin-2
