The CD44 protein family.

The international journal of biochemistry & cell biology - 1 Mar 1998

Ponta H, Wainwright D, Herrlich P

Abstract excerpt

The designation CD44 describes a group of type I transmembrane proteins which share N-terminal and C-terminal sequences. These molecules differ in the central extracellular domain by the use of sequences encoded by ten variant exons which may be completely absent or included in various combinations and by cell type specific addition of glycosaminoglycan and carbohydrate moieties. Expression of variant proteins is...
