Description

AI-generatedUnreviewed
This family of proteins includes members that are involved in various biological processes such as cell adhesion, osteogenesis, and possibly exocytosis. Some family members promote cell adhesion by interacting with extracellular matrix components like laminin and fibronectin. Others are implicated in bone health by stimulating the differentiation of mesenchymal progenitors into osteoblasts, which are essential for bone repair and maintenance. Additionally, certain proteins within this family may bind to plasminogen and could play a role in the packaging of molecules for exocytosis, as well as contributing to retinal function.
