TGFBI transforming growth factor beta induced

Gene ID: 7045, updated on 18-Jan-2025
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CSD; CDB1; CDG2; CSD1; CSD2; CSD3; EBMD; LCD1; BIGH3; CDGG1

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.
