COMP

COMP (Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with COMP include Pseudoachondroplasia and Epiphyseal Dysplasia, Multiple, 1. Among its related pathways are ECM proteoglycans and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include calcium ion binding and protease binding. An important paralog of this gene is THBS4.

Interaction

Pentamer; disulfide-linked (PubMed:32686688). Exists in a more compact conformation in the presence of calcium and shows a more extended conformation in the absence of calcium (PubMed:19276170). Interacts with ITGB3, ITGA5 and FN1. Binding to FN1 requires the presence of divalent cations (Ca(2+), Mg(2+) or Mn(2+)). The greatest amount of binding is seen in the presence of Mn(2+) (PubMed:16051604, PubMed:12225811). Interacts with MATN1, MATN3, MATN4 and ACAN (PubMed:15075323, PubMed:17588949). Binds heparin, heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate. EDTA dimishes significantly its binding to ACAN and abolishes its binding to MATN3, MATN4 and chondroitin sulfate (PubMed:17588949). Interacts with collagen I, II and IX, and interaction with these collagens is dependent on the presence of zinc ions (PubMed:11084047). Interacts with ADAMTS12 (PubMed:16611630). Interacts with ITGA7 (By similarity).
