Indicators
An essential human nutrient that is a heat-stable and water-soluble flavin belonging to the vitamin B family. Riboflavin is a precursor of the coenzymes flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). These coenzymes are of vital importance in normal tissue respiration, pyridoxine activation, tryptophan to niacin conversion, fat, carbohydrate, and protein metabolism, and glutathione reductase mediated detoxification. Riboflavin may also be involved in maintaining erythrocyte integrity. This vitamin is essential for healthy skin, nails, and hair.
Glossary Term
Ribonuclease inhibitor (461 aa, ~50 kDa) is encoded by the human RNH1 gene. This protein plays a role in the inhibition of ribonucleases.
Pcr Terms
Glossary Term
An RNA molecule that does not contain protein-coding sequence information and constitutes the majority of the cellular RNA (~80%). This nucleic acid associates with multiple proteins to form ribosomes, which are the organelles that drive mRNA-directed protein synthesis.
Pcr Terms
Glossary Term
Removal of introns from mRNA precursors and the reattachment or annealing of exons.
Pcr Terms
Indicators
This gene is involved in both protein ubiquitination and the Wnt signaling pathway.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in transcriptional regulation and cytogenetic aberrations are associated with several leukemias.
Tests
This test measures the amount of salicylates in the blood. Salicylates are a type of drug found in many over-the-counter and prescription medicines. These can include:
For everyone & professionals
Glossary Term
Impregnation of one substance by another to the greatest possible extent; that concentration of a dissolved substance that cannot be exceeded.

Indicators
Sclerostin (213 aa, ~24 kDa) is encoded by the human SOST gene. This protein plays a role in the regulation of bone growth and Wnt signaling pathways.
Indicators
This gene is involved in the mitochondrial respiratory chain.
Indicators
This gene is involved in mitochondrial electron transport.
Indicators
Secretogranin-1 (677 aa, ~78 kDa) is encoded by the human CHGB gene. This protein may play a role in the synthesis of biologically active peptides.
