|
| Function |
Cell adhesion glycoprotein which is widely distributed in basement membranes. Binds to collagens I and IV, to perlecan and to laminin 1. Does not bind fibulins. It probably has a role in cell-extracellular matrix interactions.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix, basement membrane.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Heart, placenta and bone. Less in pancreas, kidney and skeletal muscle.
