Periostin family of proteins: Therapeutic targets for heart disease

20 Oct 2005

Abstract excerpt

This review is prompted by several recent discoveries expanding our knowledge of periostin, periostin-like factor, and βig-h3. These proteins are assigned to one family based on their homology to fasciclin I identified in insects. Proteins that share homology with fasciclin I include βig-h3, stablin I and II, MBP-70, Algal-CAM, periostin (osf2), and, most recently, periostin-like-factor (PLF) (Zinn et al.,1988;...
