Target Function |
Plays an important role in the maintenance of intestinal epithelial homeostasis and the promotion of mucosal healing. Promotes VEGF-dependent neovascularization. Contributes to phagocytic removal of apoptotic cells in many tissues. Specific ligand for the alpha-v/beta-3 and alpha-v/beta-5 receptors. Also binds to phosphatidylserine-enriched cell surfaces in a receptor-independent manner. Zona pellucida-binding protein which may play a role in gamete interaction.; Main constituent of aortic medial amyloid. |
Subcellular Location |
Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Secreted. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, acrosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. |
Tissue Specificity |
Mammary epithelial cell surfaces and aortic media. Overexpressed in several carcinomas. |
