•  Phenylalanine hydroxylase

  Phenylalanine hydroxylase is an enzyme which catalyses the reaction responsible for the addition of a hydroxyl group to the end of the 6-carbon aromatic ring of phenylalanine, such that it becomes tyrosine: Image:L-phenylalanine-skeletal. png|Phenylalanine Image:L-tyrosine-skeletal. png|Tyrosine Phenylalanine hydroxylase is the rate-limiting enzyme of the metabolic pathway which degrades excess phenylalanine. The other substrates in the reaction are molecular oxygen and tetrahydrobiopterin.

•  BK channel

  In the field of molecular biology, BK channels, also called Maxi-K or slo1, are ion channels which conduct potassium (K) ions through cell membranes. These channels are activated (opened) by changes in membrane electrical potential and/or by increases in concentrations of intracellular Ca.

•  Clathrin

  Clathrin is a protein which plays a major role in the formation of coated vesicles. Clathrin was first isolated and named by Barbara Pearse in 1975. It forms a triskelion shape which is composed of three clathrin heavy chains and three light chains. When the triskelion interact they form a polyhedral lattice which surrounds the vesicle.

•  Lysozyme

  Lysozyme, also known as muramidase or N-acetylmuramide glycanhydrolase, are a family of enzymes which damage bacterial cell walls by catalyzing hydrolysis of 1,4-beta-linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in a peptidoglycan and between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitodextrins. Lysozyme is abundant in a number of secretions, such as tears, saliva, human milk and mucus.

•  Von Willebrand factor

  Von Willebrand factor (vWF) is a blood glycoprotein involved in hemostasis. It is deficient or defective in von Willebrand disease and is involved in a large number of other diseases, including thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, Heyde's syndrome, and possibly hemolytic-uremic syndrome.

•  Keratin 1

  Keratin 1 is a member of the keratin family. It is specifically expressed in the spinous and granular layers of the epidermis with family member keratin 10. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the variants of bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma in which the palms and soles of the feet are affected.

•  Pizzicato

  Pizzicato is a playing technique that involves plucking the strings of a string instrument. The exact technique varies somewhat depending on the type of stringed instrument. On bowed string instruments it is a method of playing by plucking the strings with the fingers, rather than using the bow. This produces a very different sound from bowing, short and percussive rather than sustained.
