A synthesized peptide derived from human NOD2, corresponding to a region within N-terminal amino acids.
This gene is a member of the Nod1/Apaf-1 family and encodes a protein with two caspase recruitment (CARD) domains and six leucine-rich repeats (LRRs). The protein is primarily expressed in the peripheral blood leukocytes. It plays a role in the immune response to intracellular bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) by recognizing the muramyl dipeptide (MDP) derived from them and activating the NFKB protein. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Crohn disease and Blau syndrome.
A synthesized peptide derived from human NODAL, corresponding to a region within the internal amino acids.
A synthesized peptide derived from human NOG, corresponding to a region within the internal amino acids.
A synthesized peptide derived from human Nogo A, corresponding to a region within the internal amino acids.
A synthesized peptide derived from human Nogo Receptor, corresponding to a region within the internal amino acids.
NOG (Noggin) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with NOG include Tarsal-Carpal Coalition Syndrome and Brachydactyly, Type B2. Among its related pathways are Mesodermal Commitment Pathway and Differentiation Pathway. GO annotations related to this gene include protein homodimerization activity and cytokine binding.The secreted polypeptide, encoded by this gene, binds and inactivates members of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily signaling proteins, such as bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP4). The protein appears to have pleiotropic effect, both early in development as well as in later stages. It was originally isolated from Xenopus based on its ability to restore normal dorsal-ventral body axis in embryos that had been artificially ventralized by UV treatment. The results of the mouse knockout of the ortholog suggest that it is involved in numerous developmental processes, such as neural tube fusion and joint formation. Recently, several dominant human NOG mutations in unrelated families with proximal symphalangism (SYM1) and multiple synostoses syndrome (SYNS1) were identified; both SYM1 and SYNS1 have multiple joint fusion as their principal feature, and map to the same region (17q22) as this gene.
