Cul5 (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Cullin-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CUL5 gene.The mammalian gene product was originally discovered by expression cloning, due to the protein's ability to mobilize intracellular calcium in response to the peptide hormone arginine vasopressin. It was first titled VACM-1, for vasopressin-activated, calcium-mobilizing receptor. Since then, VACM-1 has been shown to be homologous to the Cullin family of proteins, and was subsequently dubbed cul5.
