Molecular analysis of chicken embryo SPARC (osteonectin) [PDF]
SPARC is a secreted glycoprotein that modulates cell shape and cell‐matrix interactions. Levels of SPARC are increased at sites of somitogenesis, osteogenesis, and angiogenesis in the embryo and during wound repair in the adult. We have cloned and characterized SPARC from chicken embryo.
