Sample Type
Serum, plasma and other biological fluids
Additional Info
Post Translational Modifications
Phosphorylated.probably by casein kinase II. Phosphorylation alters the affinity of the protein for IGFs. In amniotic fluid, the unmodified protein is the most abundant form, while mono-, bi-, tri- and tetraphosphorylated forms are present in decreasing amounts. The phosphorylation state may influence the propensity to proteolysis.
Function
Multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in regulating the availability of IGFs such as IGF1 and IGF2 to their receptors and thereby regulates IGF-mediated cellular processes including cell migration, proliferation, differentiation or apoptosis in a cell-type specific manner. Also plays a positive role in cell migration by interacting with integrin ITGA5:ITGB1 through its RGD motif. Mechanistically, binding to integrins leads to activation of focal adhesion kinase/PTK2 and stimulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Regulates cardiomyocyte apoptosis by suppressing HIF-1alpha/HIF1A ubiquitination and subsequent degradation.
