This gene encodes a member of the globin superfamily and is expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscles. The encoded protein is a haemoprotein contributing to intracellular oxygen storage and...
Suppressor of tumorigenicity (ST2) belongs to the interleukin 1 family of receptors. It exists in two isoforms: soluble form (sST2) found circulating in the plasma and transmembrane receptor form...
Multiple biomarkers are released into the bloodstream following cardiac muscle injury. Of these, creatine kinase myocardial bound (CK-MB) is one of the most commonly measured markers for myocardial...
The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of platelet-activating factor to biologically inactive products. Defects in this gene are a cause of...
