Biglycan knockout mice: new models for musculoskeletal diseases.

Glycoconjugate journal - 1 Jan 2000

Young Marian F, Bi Yanming, Ameye Laurent, Chen Xiao-Dong

Abstract excerpt

Biglycan is a Class I Small Leucine Rich Proteoglycans (SLRP) that is localized on human chromosome Xq28-ter. The conserved nature of its intron-exon structure and protein coding sequence compared to decorin (another Class I SLRP) indicates the two genes may have arisen from gene duplication. Biglycan contains two chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains attached near its NH(2) terminus making it...
