|
Function |
Binds to type I, II, and IV collagens. This adhesion protein may play an important role in cell-collagen interactions. In cartilage, may be involved in endochondral bone formation.
|
Subcellular Location |
Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix. Note=May be associated both with microfibrils and with the cell surface.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in the corneal epithelium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8077289}.
