Source: NCBI Gene (ID 1805)

Symbol: DPT

Full name: dermatopontin

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: TRAMP

Summary: Dermatopontin is an extracellular matrix protein with possible functions in cell-matrix interactions and matrix assembly. The protein is found in various tissues and many of its tyrosine residues are sulphated. Dermatopontin is postulated to modify the behavior of TGF-beta through interaction with decorin.
