Type protein
Relations 1
Function Key regulator of transforming growth factor beta (TGFB1, TGFB2 and TGFB3) that controls TGF-beta activation by maintaining it in a latent state during storage in extracellular space (PubMed:2022183, PubMed:8617200, PubMed:8939931). Associates specifically via disulfide bonds with the Latency-associated peptide (LAP), which is the regulatory chain of TGF-beta, and regulates integrin-dependent activation of TGF-beta (PubMed:8617200, PubMed:8939931, PubMed:15184403). Outcompeted by LRRC32/GARP for binding to LAP regulatory chain of TGF-beta (PubMed:22278742).
