Aminopeptidases function as exopeptidases which remove amino acids from the amino-terminus of proteins.

Major groove contacts are formed by atoms residing on the amino-terminus of a parallel 4 helix bundle.

The glutamine rich amino-terminus, b.

The protein spans the viral membrane with an extracellular amino-terminus and a cytoplasmic carboxy-terminus.

Instead, we have found that the rlk gene encodes a distinctive palmitoylated cysteine-string motif near its amino-terminus.

P binds to the 5' copy of and then begins DNA synthesis, using a tyrosine residue near its own amino-terminus as a primer.

StarD7-I possesses an additional 75 amino acids at its amino-terminus, which form a signaling sequence that targets it to the outer membrane of the mitochondrion.

As is typical of protein-tyrosine kinases, the putative amino-terminus of atk shows little homology with its most closely related src counterparts.

First, we have observed an in vitro interaction of the amino-terminus of Rlk with the SH3 domains of Src family kinases.

Indeed, the potential in vitro binding of the amino-terminus of Rlk to the SH3 domain of Grb2 hints of similar protein interactions.

At the amino-terminus of PINK1 is a mitochondrial-targeting sequence, and mitochondrial localization has been confirmed in the one study published to date (Valente et al. 2004).

TFPI consists of a highly negatively charged amino-terminus, three tandemly linked Kunitz domains, and a highly positively charged carboxy-terminus.

To determine whether the amino-terminus of Rlk/Txk interacts with Src family SH3 domains in vitro , we performed in vitro filter binding analyses.

The fragments derived from the amino-terminus are further degraded within the cell while the fragments derived from the carboxy-terminus are released back into the blood and cleared by the kidney.

NK receptor, as well as the other tachykinin receptors, is made of seven hydrophobic transmembrane (TM) domains with three extracellular and three intracellular loops, an amino-terminus and a cytoplasmic carboxy-terminus.

Single pass TM proteins can be categorized as Type I, which are positioned such that their carboxy-terminus is towards the cytosol, or Type II, which have their amino-terminus towards the cytosol.

V receptor (VR) differs from VR primarily in the number of sites susceptible to N-linked glycosylation; the VR has sites at both the amino-terminus and at the extracellular loop, whereas the VR has a single site at the extracellular amino-terminus.
