Identification of the growth factor–binding sequence in the extracellular matrix protein MAGP-1

Abstract excerpt

gene inactivation are consistent with dysregulation of the transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)/bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling system. We have previously shown that full-length MAGP-1 binds active TGFβ-1 and some BMPs. The work presented here further defines the growth factor-binding domain of MAGP-1. Using recombinant domains and synthetic peptides, along with surface plasmon resonance analysis to...
