Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Induces cell attachment and spreading and plays a role in cell adhesion (PubMed:12235007). Enhances incorporation of BMP1 in the fibronectin matrix of connective tissues, and subsequent proteolytic activation of lysyl oxidase LOX (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62009, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12235007}. |
| Pathway | |
| Protein Families | |
| Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed with highest levels in aorta, stomach, lower gastrointestinal tract, placenta, uterus, thyroid tissue and breast. Up-regulated in epithelial ovarian tumors. Not expressed in normal ovaries. Also highly expressed at the tumor periphery of lung carcinoma tissue but not within the tumor. Overexpressed in breast cancers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11550156, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12235007, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15082792, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23946676}. |
