Arthropod Proteins. Arachnid Proteins . Crustacean Proteins . Horseshoe Crab Proteins . Spider Proteins . Tick Proteins . Proteins synthesized by organisms belonging to the phylum ARTHROPODA. Included in this heading are proteins from the subdivisions ARACHNIDA; CRUSTACEA; and HORSESHOE CRABS. Note that a separate heading for INSECT PROTEINS is listed under this heading. . 1.00
Proteins. Protein Gene Products . Proteins, Gene . Gene Proteins . Gene Products, Protein . GENE PRODUCTS . Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein. . 0.66
Ticks. Ixodidas . Tick 10681 . Ixodida . Blood-sucking acarid parasites of the order Ixodida comprising two families: the softbacked ticks (ARGASIDAE) and hardbacked ticks (IXODIDAE). Ticks are larger than their relatives, the MITES. They penetrate the skin of their host by means of highly specialized, hooked mouth parts and feed on its blood. Ticks attack all groups of terrestrial vertebrates. In humans they are responsible for many TICK-BORNE DISEASES, including the transmission of ROCKY MOUNTAIN SPOTTED FEVER; TULAREMIA; BABESIOSIS; AFRICAN SWINE FEVER; and RELAPSING FEVER.

Tripartite Motif Proteins. RBCC Protein Family . RBCC Proteins . TRIM Protein Family . TRIM Proteins . Family, RBCC Protein . Family, TRIM Protein . Motif Proteins, Tripartite . Protein Family, RBCC . Protein Family, TRIM . Proteins, RBCC . Proteins, TRIM . Proteins, Tripartite Motif . A protein family defined by the presence of three ZINC FINGER domains, one of which is a RING FINGER DOMAIN, a coiled-coil region, and a highly variable C-terminal region. They function in many cellular processes including APOPTOSIS and CELL CYCLE regulation. . 0.56
Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases. TIMP Proteins . Metalloproteinases Tissue Inhibitor . Proteins, TIMP . A family of secreted protease inhibitory proteins that regulates the activity of SECRETED MATRIX METALLOENDOPEPTIDASES. They play an important role in modulating the proteolysis of EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX, most notably during tissue remodeling and inflammatory processes. . 0.54
tau Proteins. tau Protein . Protein, tau . Proteins, tau . Microtubule-associated proteins that are mainly expressed in neurons. Tau proteins constitute several isoforms and play an important role in the assembly of tubulin monomers into microtubules and in maintaining the cytoskeleton and axonal transport. Aggregation of specific sets of tau proteins in filamentous inclusions is the common feature of intraneuronal and glial fibrillar lesions (NEUROFIBRILLARY TANGLES; NEUROPIL THREADS) in numerous neurodegenerative disorders (ALZHEIMER DISEASE; TAUOPATHIES). . 0.52
