Label	Id	Description
Carboxypeptidase B	P15086
Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor	P15083	[Function: This receptor binds polymeric IgA and IgM at the basolateral surface of epithelial cells. The complex is then transported across the cell to be secreted at the apical surface. During this process a cleavage occurs that separates the extracellular (known as the secretory component) from the transmembrane segment.]
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 2	Q8C9W3	[Function: Cleaves the propeptides of type I and II collagen prior to fibril assembly (By similarity). Does not act on type III collagen (By similarity). Cleaves lysyl oxidase LOX at a site downstream of its propeptide cleavage site to produce a short LOX form with reduced collagen-binding activity (By similarity).]
Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 36	B1AQJ2	[Function: Deubiquitinase essential for the regulation of nucleolar structure and function. Required for cell and organism viability. Plays an important role in ribosomal RNA processing and protein synthesis, which is mediated, at least in part, through deubiquitination of DHX33, NPM1 and FBL, regulating their protein stability (PubMed:29273634). Function as a transcriptional repressor by deubiquiting histone H2B at the promoters of genes critical for cellular differentiation, such as CDKN1A, thereby preventing histone H3 'Lys-4' trimethylation (H3K4). Specifically deubiquitinates MYC in the nucleolus, leading to prevent MYC degradation by the proteasome: acts by specifically interacting with isoform 3 of FBXW7 (FBW7gamma) in the nucleolus and counteracting ubiquitination of MYC by the SCF(FBW7) complex. In contrast, it does not interact with isoform 1 of FBXW7 (FBW7alpha) in the nucleoplasm. Interacts to and regulates the actions of E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase NEDD4L over substrates such as NTRK1, KCNQ2 and KCNQ3, affecting their expression an functions. Deubiquitinates SOD2, regulates SOD2 protein stability. Deubiquitinase activity is required to control selective autophagy activation by ubiquitinated proteins (By similarity).]
HEAT repeat-containing protein 5A	Q5PRF0
PWWP domain-containing DNA repair factor 3B	Q5H9M0
TM2 domain-containing protein 3	Q9BRN9
Probable E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIML1	Q8N9V2	[Function: Probable E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which plays an important role in blastocyst development.]
Villin-1	Q62468	[Function: Epithelial cell-specific Ca(2+)-regulated actin-modifying protein that modulates the reorganization of microvillar actin filaments. Plays a role in the actin nucleation, actin filament bundle assembly, actin filament capping and severing. Binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and lysophosphatidic acid (LPA); binds LPA with higher affinity than PIP2. Binding to LPA increases its phosphorylation by SRC and inhibits all actin-modifying activities. Binding to PIP2 inhibits actin-capping and -severing activities but enhances actin-bundling activity. Regulates the intestinal epithelial cell morphology, cell invasion, cell migration and apoptosis. Protects against apoptosis induced by dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) in the gastrointestinal epithelium. Appears to regulate cell death by maintaining mitochondrial integrity. Enhances hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-induced epithelial cell motility, chemotaxis and wound repair. Upon S.flexneri cell infection, its actin-severing activity enhances actin-based motility of the bacteria and plays a role during the dissemination.]
Integrin alpha-2	Q62469	[Function: Integrin alpha-2/beta-1 is a collagen receptor, being responsible for adhesion of platelets and other cells to collagens, modulation of collagen and collagenase gene expression, force generation and organization of newly synthesized extracellular matrix. It is also a receptor for laminins, collagen C-propeptides and E-cadherin. Mice homozygous for a null mutation in the alpha-2 die very early in embryogenesis.]
Intraflagellar transport protein 57 homolog	Q8BXG3	[Function: Required for the formation of cilia. Plays an indirect role in sonic hedgehog signaling, cilia being required for all activity of the hedgehog pathway. Has pro-apoptotic function via its interaction with HIP1, leading to recruit caspase-8 (CASP8) and trigger apoptosis. Has the ability to bind DNA sequence motif 5'-AAAGACATG-3' present in the promoter of caspase genes such as CASP1, CASP8 and CASP10, suggesting that it may act as a transcription regulator; however the relevance of such function remains unclear.]
Squalene monooxygenase	P52019	[Function: Catalyzes the stereospecific oxidation of squalene to (S)-2,3-epoxysqualene, and is considered to be a rate-limiting enzyme in steroid biosynthesis.]
N-acetylgalactosamine kinase	Q68FH4	[Function: Acts on GalNAc. Also acts as a galactokinase when galactose is present at high concentrations (By similarity).]
Hexokinase-1	P05708	[Function: Catalyzes the phosphorylation of various hexoses, such as D-glucose, D-glucosamine, D-fructose, D-mannose and 2-deoxy-D-glucose, to hexose 6-phosphate (D-glucose 6-phosphate, D-glucosamine 6-phosphate, D-fructose 6-phosphate, D-mannose 6-phosphate and 2-deoxy-D-glucose 6-phosphate, respectively) (PubMed:13211595, PubMed:5871820, PubMed:3579310). Mediates the initial step of glycolysis by catalyzing phosphorylation of D-glucose to D-glucose 6-phosphate (PubMed:13211595, PubMed:5871820). Involved in innate immunity and inflammation by acting as a pattern recognition receptor for bacterial peptidoglycan (By similarity). When released in the cytosol, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine component of bacterial peptidoglycan inhibits the hexokinase activity of HK1 and causes its dissociation from mitochondrial outer membrane, thereby activating the NLRP3 inflammasome (By similarity).]
Cadherin-4	P39038	[Function: Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. May play an important role in retinal development.]
Conserved oligomeric Golgi complex subunit 7	Q3UM29	[Function: Required for normal Golgi function.]
Mannose-binding protein A	P39039	[Function: Calcium-dependent lectin. Plays a role in the innate immune response by binding mannose, fucose and N-acetylglucosamine moieties on different microorganisms and mediating activation of the lectin complement pathway (By similarity). Binds to late apoptotic cells, as well as to apoptotic blebs and to necrotic cells, but not to early apoptotic cells, facilitating their uptake by macrophages (By similarity).]
Vasopressin V1a receptor	Q62463	[Function: Receptor for arginine vasopressin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate a phosphatidyl-inositol-calcium second messenger system. Involved in social memory formation.]
Synaptic vesicle membrane protein VAT-1 homolog	Q62465	[Function: Plays a part in calcium-regulated keratinocyte activation in epidermal repair mechanisms. Has no effect on cell proliferation (By similarity). Possesses ATPase activity. Negatively regulates mitochondrial fusion in cooperation with mitofusin proteins (MFN1-2) (By similarity).]
Tyrosine-protein kinase FRK	P42685	[Function: Non-receptor tyrosine-protein kinase that negatively regulates cell proliferation. Positively regulates PTEN protein stability through phosphorylation of PTEN on 'Tyr-336', which in turn prevents its ubiquitination and degradation, possibly by reducing its binding to NEDD4. May function as a tumor suppressor.]
