Protein Variants

EC Number Protein Variants Comment Organism
3.4.21.79 additional information granzyme B-deficient mice possess a normal phenotype, with the exception of reduced CTL-mediated target cell apoptosis, antiviral responses, and tumor cell clearance. Treg cells from granzyme B-deficient mice can not suppress immune responses as effectively as Treg cells from wild-type mice. Granzyme B-deficient recipient mice exhibit reduced allograft vasculopathy and increased susceptibility to allgergen-induced asthma. Hearts from 129J donor mice transplanted into granzyme B-KO mice exhibit significantly smaller lesions and luminal narrowing compared with wild-type recipients Mus musculus

3.4.21.79 additional information increased protein levels in all regions of vessels with advanced atherosclerosis, i.e., superficial intima, deep intima, and the media. In the intima granzyme B is present within lipid-rich regions in which it localizes to TUNEL-positive foam cells of atherosclerotic plaques. In allograft vasculopathy increase of protein levels only in the deep intima Homo sapiens
