Vitamin B12, also called cobalamin, is a water-soluble vitamin that has a key role in the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system, and the formation of red blood cells. It is one of eight B vitamins. It is involved in the metabolism of every cell of the human body, especially affecting DNA synthesis, fatty acid and amino acid metabolism No fungi, plants, or animals (including humans) are capable of producing vitamin B12. Only bacteria and archaea have the enzymes needed for its synthesis. Some substantial sources of B12 include animal products (shellfish, meat), fortified food products, and dietary supplements.B12 is the largest and most structurally complicated vitamin and can be produced industrially only through bacterial fermentation synthesis, typically used to manufacture B12 for fortified foods and supplements. Vitamin B12 consists of a class of chemically related compounds (vitamers), all of which show pharmacological activity.

This gene belongs to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. The encoded protein is postulated to play a regulatory role in suppressing FasL- and LIGHT-mediated cell death. It acts as a decoy receptor that competes with death receptors for ligand binding. Overexpression of this gene has been noted in gastrointestinal tract tumors, and it is located in a gene-rich cluster on chromosome 20, with other potentially tumor-related genes. Two transcript variants encoding the same isoform, but differing in the 5 UTR, have been observed for this gene.

Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b) encodes an iron containing glycoprotein which catalyzes the conversion of orthophosphoric monoester to alcohol and orthophosphate. It is the most basic of the acid phosphatases and is the only form not inhibited by L(+)-tartrate

Angiotensin II is a potent pressor hormone and a primary regulator of aldosterone secretion. It is an important effector controlling blood pressure and volume in the cardiovascular system. It acts through at least two types of receptors termed AT1 and AT2. AGTR2 belongs to a family 1 of G protein-coupled receptors. It is an integral membrane protein. It plays a role in the central nervous system and cardiovascular functions that are mediated by the renin-angiotensin system. This receptor mediates programmed cell death (apoptosis). In adults, it is highly expressed in myometrium with lower levels in adrenal gland and fallopian tube. It is highly expressed in fetal kidney and intestine. The human AGTR2 gene is composed of three exons and spans at least 5 kb.

Phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) hydrolyze the sn-2 fatty acid acyl ester bond of phosphoglycerides, releasing free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. PLA2G2A belongs to PLA2 group II, which consists of extracellular enzymes with low molecular masses that require calcium ions for catalysis . The deduced protein contains a 20-amino acid signal sequence, followed by a 124-amino acid mature peptide that has a calculated molecular mass of about 14 kD. The protein has characteristics of the type II class of PLA2s, including conserved catalytic residues and a Ca(2+)-binding loop. Northern blot analysis detected a 0.8-kb transcript in inflamed human synovial tissue and in peritoneal exudate cells from a peritonitis patient, but not in 2 activated human promyelocytic cell lines.

P-selectin is the largest of the known selectins at 140kDa. It contains nine consensus repeats (CR) and extends approximately 40 nm from the endothelial surface. P-selectin is expressed in a-granules of activated platelets and granules of endothelial cells. Within minutes of stimulation of the endothelial cells by inflammatory mediators such as histamine, thrombin, or phorbol esters, P-selectin is surface-expressed. Expression of P-selectin also occurs from the surgical trauma endured during preparation of the tissues for intravital microscopy. The expression is short-lived, reaching its peak after only ten minutes. Additional synthesis of P-selectin is brought about within two hours by cytokines such as interleukin-1 (IL-1) or tumor necrosis factor a (TNF-a).

SORCS2 encodes one family member of vacuolar protein sorting 10 (VPS10) domain-containing receptor proteins. The VPS10 domain name comes from the yeast carboxypeptidase Y sorting receptor Vps10 protein. Members of this gene family are large with many exons but the CDS lengths are usually less than 3700 nt. Very large introns typically separate the exons encoding the VPS10 domain; the remaining exons are separated by much smaller-sized introns. These genes are strongly expressed in the central nervous system.
