Description
This domain is found in the human Thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing protein 1 (THSD1) and related proteins. THSD1 is involved in endothelial cell to extracellular matrix adhesion
[1]. THSD1 forms a multimeric protein complex with FAK/talin/ vinculin, wherein THSD1 promotes talin binding to FAK but not to vinculin, a key step in nascent adhesion assembly
[2]. The domain represented by this entry is predicted to adopt Ig-like beta-sandwich.
