The Thrombospondin Gene Family (Molecular Biology Intelligence Unit)
The Thrombospondin Gene Family - Molecular Biology Intelligence Unit Author:Josephine C. Adams, Richard P. Tucker, Jack Lawler This book describes the functional properties and the structural organization of the members of the thrombospondin gene family. These proteins comprise a family of extracellular calcium binding proteins that modulate cellular adhesion, migration and proliferation. Thrombospondin-1 has been shown to function during angiogenesis, wound healing and... more » tumor cell metastasis.« less
