Gene: TGFBI
Alternate names for this Gene: BIGH3|CDB1|CDG2|CDGG1|CSD|CSD1|CSD2|CSD3|EBMD|LCD1
Gene Summary: This gene encodes an RGD-containing protein that binds to type I, II and IV collagens. The RGD motif is found in many extracellular matrix proteins modulating cell adhesion and serves as a ligand recognition sequence for several integrins. This protein plays a role in cell-collagen interactions and may be involved in endochondrial bone formation in cartilage. The protein is induced by transforming growth factor-beta and acts to inhibit cell adhesion. Mutations in this gene are associated with multiple types of corneal dystrophy.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 5
Location in Chromosome : 5q31.1
Description of this Gene: transforming growth factor beta induced
