Isolation, characterization and mapping of the mouse and human PRG4 (proteoglycan 4) genes.

Cytogenetics and cell genetics - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

PRG4 (proteoglycan 4) has been identified as megakaryocyte stimulating factor and articular superficial zone protein. PRG4 has characteristic motifs including somatomedin B and hemopexin domains, a chondroitin sulfate-attachment site and mucin-like repeats. During a screen of genes implicated in ectopic ossification, we found a novel mouse gene highly homologous to human and bovine PRG4 genes. Here, we report...
