Interaction of Extracellular Matrix Protein 1 with Extracellular Matrix Components: ECM1 Is a Basement Membrane Protein of the Skin [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2008
The extracellular matrix protein 1 (ECM1) is a secreted glycoprotein, which plays an important role in the structural and functional biology of the skin as demonstrated by the identification of loss-of-function mutations in ECM1 as cause of the genodermatosis lipoid proteinosis, characterized by reduplication of the skin basement membrane and ...

Stepwise Evolution of Coral Biomineralization Revealed with Genome-Wide Proteomics and Transcriptomics. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Despite the importance of stony corals in many research fields related to global issues, such as marine ecology, climate change, paleoclimatogy, and metazoan evolution, very little is known about the evolutionary origin of coral skeleton formation.

The matrilins – adaptor proteins in the extracellular matrix

FEBS Letters, 2005
The matrilins form a four‐member family of modular, multisubunit matrix proteins, which are expressed in cartilage but also in many other forms of extracellular matrix. They participate in the formation of fibrillar or filamentous structures and are often associated with collagens.

The basement membrane protein nidogen-1 supports platelet adhesion and activation

Platelets, 2021
The core structure of the extracellular basement membrane is made up of self-assembling networks of collagen and laminin which associate with each other through the bridging adapter proteins including the sulfated monomeric glycoprotein nidogen.

Extracellular Matrix Proteins and Tumor Angiogenesis

Journal of Oncology, 2010
Tumor development is a complex process that relies on interaction and communication between a number of cellular compartments. Much of the mass of a solid tumor is comprised of the stroma which is richly invested with extracellular matrix. Within this matrix are a host of matricellular proteins that regulate the expression and function of a myriad of ...
