Function |
Appears to mediate interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix. Substrate-adhesion molecule that appears to inhibit cell migration. Accelerates collagen fibril formation. May play a role in supporting the growth of epithelial tumors. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17033827}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in fetal adrenal, in fetal testis, fetal smooth, striated and cardiac muscle. Isoform XB- short is only expressed in the adrenal gland.
