Collagen and calcium-binding EGF domain-containing protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CCBE1 gene .[ 1] [ 2]
Function
CCBE1 is a regulator of the development and growth of the lymphatic system . CCBE1 is necessary for the proteolytic activation of VEGF-C by ADAMTS3 [ 3] , which is the main growth factor for the lymphatic system [ 4] .
Clinical significance
Hennekam syndrome type I (a generalized lymphatic dysplasia in humans) is associated with mutations in the CCBE1 gene[ 5] , and the molecular etiology of the disease has been elucidated[ 3] .
