protein
| interacting with decorin, a SFTPD-binding protein (decorin core protein binds the collagen-like region of the SFTPD) |
|
binds the extracellular domains of TLR2 and TLR4 through its CRD by a mechanism different from its binding to PI and LPS |
|
putative binding motif for OSCAR within the SFTPD collagenous domain, and interaction is a potential therapeutic target in chronic inflammatory diseases of the lung as well as other diseases involving tissue accumulation of SFTPD, infiltration of inflammatory monocytes |
