FN1 | Fibronectin; Fibronectins bind cell surfaces and various compounds including collagen, fibrin, heparin, DNA, and actin. Fibronectins are involved in cell adhesion, cell motility, opsonization, wound healing, and maintenance of cell shape. May be involved in osteoblast compaction (By similarity). (2526 aa) | ||||
SPARC | SPARC; Appears to regulate cell growth through interactions with the extracellular matrix and cytokines. Binds calcium and copper, several types of collagen, albumin, thrombospondin, PDGF and cell membranes. There are two calcium binding sites; an acidic domain that binds 5 to 8 Ca(2+) with a low affinity and an EF-hand loop that binds a Ca(2+) ion with a high affinity (By similarity). (298 aa) | ||||
ASPN | Asporin. (371 aa) | ||||
FBN1 | Fibrillin 1. (2861 aa) | ||||
LUM | Lumican; Belongs to the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family. SLRP class II subfamily. (343 aa) | ||||
VCAN | Versican core protein; 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. (3559 aa) | ||||
COL3A1 | Collagen alpha-1(III) chain; Collagen type III occurs in most soft connective tissues along with type I collagen. (1460 aa) | ||||
DCN | Decorin; May affect the rate of fibrils formation; Belongs to the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family. SLRP class I subfamily. (357 aa) | ||||
POSTN | Uncharacterized protein. (857 aa) | ||||
ELN | Elastin; Major structural protein of tissues such as aorta and nuchal ligament, which must expand rapidly and recover completely. (811 aa) |
