HBEGF | heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor; Growth factor that mediates its effects via EGFR, ERBB2 and ERBB4. Required for normal cardiac valve formation and normal heart function. Promotes smooth muscle cell proliferation. May be involved in macrophage-mediated cellular proliferation. It is mitogenic for fibroblasts, but not endothelial cells. It is able to bind EGF receptor/EGFR with higher affinity than EGF itself and is a far more potent mitogen for smooth muscle cells than EGF. Also acts as a diphtheria toxin receptor (208 aa) | |||
TRAF2 | TNF receptor-associated factor 2; Regulates activation of NF-kappa-B and JNK and plays a central role in the regulation of cell survival and apoptosis. Required for normal antibody isotype switching from IgM to IgG. Has E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity and promotes ’Lys-63’- linked ubiquitination of target proteins, such as BIRC3, RIPK1 and TICAM1. Is an essential constituent of several E3 ubiquitin- protein ligase complexes, where it promotes the ubiquitination of target proteins by bringing them into contact with other E3 ubiquitin ligases. Regulates BIRC2 and BIRC3 protein level [...] (501 aa) | |||
ELN | elastin (724 aa) | |||
TANK | TRAF family member-associated NFKB activator; Acts as a regulator of TRAF function by maintaining them in a latent state. Overexpression inhibits TRAF2-mediated NF- kappa-B activation signaled by CD40, TNFR1 and TNFR2. Blocks TRAF2 binding to LMP1 and inhibits LMP1-mediated NF-kappa-B activation. May be involved in I-kappa-B-kinase (IKK) regulation; may function as an adapter for kinases such as TBK1 or IKBKE that can modulate IKK activity (425 aa) | |||
NOV | nephroblastoma overexpressed; Immediate-early protein likely to play a role in cell growth regulation (By similarity) (357 aa) | |||
NID1 | nidogen 1; Sulfated glycoprotein widely distributed in basement membranes and tightly associated with laminin. Also binds to collagen IV and perlecan. It probably has a role in cell- extracellular matrix interactions (1247 aa) | |||
VCAN | versican; May play a role in intercellular signaling and in connecting cells with the extracellular matrix. May take part in the regulation of cell motility, growth and differentiation. Binds hyaluronic acid (3396 aa) | |||
MFAP1 | microfibrillar-associated protein 1; Component of the elastin-associated microfibrils (439 aa) | |||
APP | amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein (770 aa) | |||
ITGB1 | integrin, beta 1 (fibronectin receptor, beta polypeptide, antigen CD29 includes MDF2, MSK12) (798 aa) | |||
FGB | fibrinogen beta chain; Fibrinogen has a double function- yielding monomers that polymerize into fibrin and acting as a cofactor in platelet aggregation (491 aa) | |||
EFEMP2 | EGF containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein 2 (443 aa) | |||
MFAP3 | microfibrillar-associated protein 3; Component of the elastin-associated microfibrils (362 aa) | |||
FBLN1 | fibulin 1 (703 aa) | |||
FBLN5 | fibulin 5; Promotes adhesion of endothelial cells through interaction of integrins and the RGD motif. Could be a vascular ligand for integrin receptors and may play a role in vascular development and remodeling (448 aa) | |||
FN1 | fibronectin 1 (2477 aa) | |||
EFEMP1 | EGF containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein 1; Binds EGFR, the EGF receptor, inducing EGFR autophosphorylation and the activation of downstream signaling pathways. May play a role in cell adhesion and migration. May function as a negative regulator of chondrocyte differentiation. In the olfactory epithelium, it may regulate glial cell migration, differentiation and the ability of glial cells to support neuronal neurite outgrowth (493 aa) | |||
MFAP5 | microfibrillar associated protein 5; Component of the elastin-associated microfibrils (173 aa) | |||
CTGF | connective tissue growth factor; Major connective tissue mitoattractant secreted by vascular endothelial cells. Promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Mediates heparin- and divalent cation-dependent cell adhesion in many cell types including fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells. Enhances fibroblast growth factor-induced DNA synthesis (349 aa) | |||
ECM1 | extracellular matrix protein 1 (567 aa) | |||
HSPG2 | heparan sulfate proteoglycan 2; Integral component of basement membranes. Component of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM), responsible for the fixed negative electrostatic membrane charge, and which provides a barrier which is both size- and charge-selective. It serves as an attachment substrate for cells. Plays essential roles in vascularization. Critical for normal heart development and for regulating the vascular response to injury. Also required for avascular cartilage development (4391 aa) | |||
MFAP2 | microfibrillar-associated protein 2; Component of the elastin-associated microfibrils (183 aa) | |||
TFAP2A | transcription factor AP-2 alpha (activating enhancer binding protein 2 alpha); Sequence-specific DNA-binding protein that interacts with inducible viral and cellular enhancer elements to regulate transcription of selected genes. AP-2 factors bind to the consensus sequence 5’-GCCNNNGGC-3’ and activate genes involved in a large spectrum of important biological functions including proper eye, face, body wall, limb and neural tube development. They also suppress a number of genes including MCAM/MUC18, C/EBP alpha and MYC. AP-2-alpha is the only AP-2 protein required for early morphogenesis [...] (437 aa) | |||
