Biological Functions of the Small Leucine-rich Proteoglycans: From Genetics to Signal Transduction
8 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
The small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family has significantly expanded in the past decade to now encompass five discrete classes, grouped by common structural and functional properties. Some of these gene products are not classical proteoglycans, whereas others have new and unique features. In addition to being structural proteins, SLRPs constitute a network of signal regulation: being mostly extracellular,...
