Fig. 1. Structural and functional properties of CCN proteins.

Fig. 1

Primary CCN translational products comprise a signal peptide and four modules that can be differentially liberated by proteolysis. Through their contextual interactions with cell surface receptors, co-receptors, and signaling molecules, CCN proteins regulate multiple cellular functions and biological processes.
