Cartilage intermediate layer protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CILP gene. [5] [6] [7]
Major alterations in the composition of the cartilage extracellular matrix occur in joint disease, such as osteoarthrosis. The synthesis of cartilage intermediate layer protein (CILP), which was identified and purified from human articular cartilage, increases in early osteoarthrosis cartilage. The C-terminal 460 amino acids of the protein show 90% similarity to the pig ectonucleotide pyrophosphohydrolase NTPPHase; this region is preceded by a furin protease consensus cleavage site. Thus, the CILP gene is thought to encode a protein precursor for 2 different proteins, namely CILP and a homolog of NTPPHase. [7]
Bone morphogenetic protein 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BMP6 gene.
Growth differentiation factor 6 (GDF6) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GDF6 gene.
Bifunctional purine biosynthesis protein PURH is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ATIC gene.
Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), also known as thrombospondin-5, is an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein primarily present in cartilage. In humans it is encoded by the COMP gene.
Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 15 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ADAM15 gene.
C-C chemokine receptor-like 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CCRL2 gene. Recently it was found that CCRL2 also acts as a receptor for the chemokine chemerin.
