extracellular matrix protein secreted by many cell types; member of the large chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) family; may be involved with angiogenesis -dependent processes such as wound healing or tumor growth [RGD, Feb 2006]
uniprot summary :
NG2: a transmembrane chondrotin sulfate proteoglycan expressed on several types of immature progenitor cells and human malignant melanoma cells. Plays a role in cell proliferation and motility of endothelial cells during microvascular morphogenesis. May also inhibit neurite outgrowth and growth cone collapse during axon regeneration. Cell surface receptor for collagen alpha 2(VI) which may confer cells ability to migrate on that substrate. May regulate MPP16-dependent degradation and invasion of type I collagen participating to melanoma cells invasion properties. Functions also as a signal transducing protein by binding through its cytoplasmic C-terminus scaffolding and signaling proteins. May promote retraction fiber formation and cell polarization through Rho GTPase activation. May stimulate alpha-4, beta-1 integrin-mediated adhesion and spreading by recruiting and activating a signaling cascade through Cdc42, ACK1 and P130Cas. May activate FAK and ERK signaling cascades. PKC-alpha-mediated NG2 phosphorylation may be a key step for initiating cell polarization and motility. Protein type: Cell adhesion; Membrane protein, integral. Cellular Component: cell surface; cell projection; focal adhesion; integral to plasma membrane; apical plasma membrane; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: collagen binding; signal transducer activity; protein kinase binding. Biological Process: cell proliferation; positive regulation of peptidyl-tyrosine phosphorylation; activation of MAPK activity; response to lithium ion; tissue remodeling; angiogenesis; signal transduction; glial cell migration; inflammatory response; transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway; neuron remodeling
