    text
  • lipid-anchor
  • GPI-anchor
  • basic FUNCTION
  • acting as a negative regulator for matrix metalloproteinase 9 and 2 (MMP9, MMP2)
  • inhibiting tumor invasion
  • acting as a serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor
  • regulates the ectodomain shedding of Notch ligands by directly inhibiting the proteolytic activity of ADAM10
  • inhibitor of ADAM10, an upstream regulator of Notch signaling and a critical modulator of brain development (Muraguchi 2007)
  • inhibits the enzymatic activities of some matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), thereby suppressing tumor cell metastasis (Takagi 2009)
  • critically regulates Notch signaling by antagonizing the ectodomain shedding of Notch ligands, which is mediated by a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain 10 (ADAM10) (Muraguchi 2007)
  • GDE2 promotes neurogenesis by glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor cleavage of RECK
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell cycle, progression

    protein
  • interacting with MMP9 (negative regulator of MMP9 transcription) (Takagi 2009)
  • interacting with Tgat oncoprotein
  • cleaved by MMP2 and MMP7 and competitively inhibits MMP-7-catalyzed cleavage of fibronectin (Omura 2009)
  • RECK and GPR124 are part of the cell surface protein complex that transduces WNT7A- and WNT7B-specific signals in mammalian CNS endothelial cells (ECs) to promote angiogenesis and regulate the Blood-Brain Barrier
