Thrombomodulin, TM is cell surface glycoprotein; plays an important role in the protein C anticoagulant pathway. It located in a vein, artery and capillary endothelial cells on the surface of plasma membrane protein. It is generally believed: TM vascular endothelial injury is an important parameter is the thrombin receptor, known in a variety of normal human tissues, can also be expressed in many tumors, TM may be similar to the E-cadherin,and is a lectin Like activity of a new class of member

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) family. All ICAM proteins are type I transmembrane glycoproteins, contain 2-9 immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains, and bind to the leukocyte adhesion LFA-1 protein. This protein may play a role in lymphocyte recirculation by blocking LFA-1-dependent cell adhesion. It mediates adhesive interactions important for antigen-specific immune response, NK-cell mediated clearance, lymphocyte recirculation, and o

May play a functional role in the immune system, as well as in the nervous system. Induces B-cells to aggregate and improves their viability in vitro.

This gene encodes a member of the RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) family of serine/threonine kinases. This kinase contains 2 non-identical kinase catalytic domains and phosphorylates various substrates, including members of the mitogen-activated kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway. The activity of this protein has been implicated in controlling cell growth and differentiation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Coffin-Lowry syndrome (CLS).

TORC3 is a 619 amino acid protein that localizes to both the cytoplasm and the nucleus and belongs to the TORC family. Expressed in lung tissue and B and T lymphocytes, as well as in colon, brain, ovary, kidney, prostate, colon and heart, TORC3 functions as a transcriptional coactivator for CREB-1, thereby regulating the expression of CREB-activated genes, and is also thought to activate the SIK/TORC signaling pathway. TORC3 exists as multiple alternatively spliced isoforms and, in additi

The product of this gene belongs to the family of prolyl 4-hydroxylases. This protein is a prolyl hydroxylase that may be involved in the degradation of hypoxia-inducible transcription factors under normoxia. It plays a role in adaptation to hypoxia and may be related to cellular oxygen sensing. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
