syndecan — An integral membrane proteoglycan (250 300 kD) associated largely with epithelial cells. The core protein of 294 amino acids has an extracellular domain of 235 amino acids and a single transmembrane domain of 25 amino acids. The extracellular… … Dictionary of molecular biology
biglycan — A small proteoglycan, 150 240 kD, of the extracellular matrix. The core protein has a mass of around 42 kD and is very similar to the core protein of decorin and fibromodulin. All three have highly conserved sequences containing 10 internal… … Dictionary of molecular biology
decorin — A small proteoglycan, 90 140 kD, of the extracellular matrix, so called because it decorates collagen fibres. The core protein has a mass of approximately 42 kD and is very similar to the core protein of biglycan and fibromodulin. All three have… … Dictionary of molecular biology
