Eosinophil Cationic Protein

One of several basic proteins released from EOSINOPHIL cytoplasmic granules. Eosinophil cationic protein is a 21-kDa cytotoxic peptide with a pI of 10.9. Although eosinophil cationic protein is considered a member of the RNAse A superfamily of proteins, it has only limited RNAse activity.

Also Known As:

Eosinophil-Associated Ribonuclease; RNS3 Protein; RNase 3; Serum Eosinophil Cationic Protein; Cationic Protein, Eosinophil; Eosinophil Associated Ribonuclease; Ribonuclease, Eosinophil-Associated
