Gene information for CYR61 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3491
Official gene symbolCYR61
Full namecysteine-rich, angiogenic inducer, 61
Aliases,CCN1,GIG1,IGFBP10,
Gene summaryCYR61 is a secreted, cysteine-rich, heparin-binding protein encoded by a growth factor-inducible immediate-early gene. Acting as an extracellular, matrix-associated signaling molecule, CYR61 promotes the adhesion of endothelial cells through interaction with integrin and augments growth factor-induced DNA synthesis in the same cell type.[supplied by OMIM]
