Cross talk among TGF-β signaling pathways, integrins, and the extracellular matrix.
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2011 The growth factor TGF-β is secreted in a latent complex consisting of three proteins: TGF-β, an inhibitor (latency-associated protein, LAP, which is derived from the TGF-β propeptide) and an ECM-binding protein (one of the latent TGF-β binding proteins ...

The role of calcium in the organization of fibrillin microfibrils
FEBS Letters, 1993 The microfibrillar glycoprotein fibrillin has a multidomain structure which contains forty‐three epidermal growth factor‐like motifs with calciumbinding consensus sequences. We have utilized intact microfibrils isolated from human dermal fibroblast cultures to investigate the putative influence of bound calcium on microfibrillar organization and ...

The developmental roles of the extracellular matrix: Beyond structure to regulation [PDF]
, 2010 Cells in multicellular organisms are surrounded by a complex three-dimensional macromolecular extracellular matrix (ECM). This matrix, traditionally thought to serve a structural function providing support and strength to cells within tissues, is ...
