Label	Id	Description
Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 17	P78536	[Function: Cleaves the membrane-bound precursor of TNF-alpha to its mature soluble form (PubMed:9034191). Responsible for the proteolytical release of soluble JAM3 from endothelial cells surface (PubMed:20592283). Responsible for the proteolytic release of several other cell-surface proteins, including p75 TNF-receptor, interleukin 1 receptor type II, p55 TNF-receptor, transforming growth factor-alpha, L-selectin, growth hormone receptor, MUC1 and the amyloid precursor protein (PubMed:12441351). Acts as an activator of Notch pathway by mediating cleavage of Notch, generating the membrane-associated intermediate fragment called Notch extracellular truncation (NEXT) (PubMed:24226769). Plays a role in the proteolytic processing of ACE2 (PubMed:24227843). Plays a role in hemostasis through shedding of GP1BA, the platelet glycoprotein Ib alpha chain (By similarity). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage of LAG3, leading to release the secreted form of LAG3 (By similarity).]
Biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 subunit 1	P78537	[Function: May negatively regulate aerobic respiration through mitochondrial protein lysine-acetylation. May counteract the action of the deacetylase SIRT3 by acetylating and regulating proteins of the mitochondrial respiratory chain including ATP5F1A and NDUFA9.]
Sushi repeat-containing protein SRPX	P78539	[Function: May be involved in phagocytosis during disk shedding, cell adhesion to cells other than the pigment epithelium or signal transduction.]
BTB/POZ domain-containing protein 9	Q5PQR3
Epidermal retinol dehydrogenase 2	Q7TQA3	[Function: Oxidoreductase with strong preference for NAD. Active in both the oxidative and reductive directions. Oxidizes all-trans-retinol in all-trans-retinaldehyde. No activity was detected with 11-cis-retinol or 11-cis-retinaldehyde as substrates with either NAD(+)/NADH or NADP(+)/NADPH (By similarity).]
Caspase-2	P42575	[Function: Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Might function by either activating some proteins required for cell death or inactivating proteins necessary for cell survival (PubMed:15073321). Associates with PIDD1 and CRADD to form the PIDDosome, a complex that activates CASP2 and triggers apoptosis in response to genotoxic stress (PubMed:15073321).]
Centrosomal protein of 112 kDa	Q8N8E3
Taste receptor type 2 member 140	Q7TQA4	[Function: Receptor that may play a role in the perception of bitterness and is gustducin-linked. May play a role in sensing the chemical composition of the gastrointestinal content. The activity of this receptor may stimulate alpha gustducin, mediate PLC-beta-2 activation and lead to the gating of TRPM5.]
Caspase-3	P42574	[Function: Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. At the onset of apoptosis it proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) at a '216-Asp-\|-Gly-217' bond. Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) between the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper domain and the membrane attachment domain. Cleaves and activates caspase-6, -7 and -9. Involved in the cleavage of huntingtin. Triggers cell adhesion in sympathetic neurons through RET cleavage.]
Immunoglobulin superfamily member 1	Q7TQA1	[Function: Seems to be a coreceptor in inhibin signaling, but seems not to be a high-affinity inhibin receptor. Antagonizes activin A signaling in the presence or absence of inhibin B. Necessary to mediate a specific antagonistic effect of inhibin B on activin-stimulated transcription (By similarity).]
POU domain, class 2, transcription factor 3	P42571	[Function: Transcription factor that binds to the octamer motif (5'-ATTTGCAT-3'). Activates cytokeratin 10 (K10) gene expression. May serve a regulatory function with respect to epidermal development. Isoform 2 inhibits transactivation by OCT-1.]
Rab-3A-interacting protein	Q68EF0	[Function: Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) which may activate RAB8A and RAB8B. Promotes the exchange of GDP to GTP, converting inactive GDP-bound Rab proteins into their active GTP-bound form. Mediates the release of GDP from RAB8A and RAB8B but not from RAB3A or RAB5. Modulates actin organization and promotes polarized transport of RAB8A-specific vesicles to the cell surface. Together with RAB11A, RAB8A, the exocyst complex, PARD3, PRKCI, ANXA2, CDC42 and DNMBP promotes transcytosis of PODXL to the apical membrane initiation sites (AMIS), apical surface formation and lumenogenesis.]
Taste receptor type 2 member 135	Q7TQA9	[Function: Putative taste receptor which may play a role in the perception of bitterness.]
Taste receptor type 2 member 3	Q7TQA7	[Function: Gustducin-coupled receptor implicated in the perception of bitter compounds in the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract. Signals through PLCB2 and the calcium-regulated cation channel TRPM5 (By similarity).]
Taste receptor type 2 member 136	Q7TQA8	[Function: Putative taste receptor which may play a role in the perception of bitterness.]
Taste receptor type 2 member 39	Q7TQA5	[Function: Putative taste receptor which may play a role in the perception of bitterness.]
Defensin alpha-like protein 1	Q4JEI2	[Function: Intestinal defense peptide (PubMed:23380721, PubMed:28345637). Has potent antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacteria E.coli O157:H7, S.typhimurium DT104, and K.pneumoniae; and against Gram-positive bacteria S.aureus, methicillin-resistant S.aureus and L.monocytogenes (PubMed:23380721, PubMed:28345637).
