    motifs/domains
  • a N-terminal leader peptide
  • 17 potential N-linked glycosylation sites
  • alpha-2-macroglobulin motif
  • a C-terminal GPI anchor cleavage-addition site, that is required for its presence in the exosome
  • conjugated GlycoP

    HOMOLOGY
    interspecies ortholog to murine CD109
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • protease inhibitor I39 (alpha-2- macroglobulin) family
  • CATEGORY antigen
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular
        plasma membrane

    basic FUNCTION
  • endopeptidase inhibitor activity with a wide spectrum of protein targets, which attaches through its thioester function
  • may play a role in hematopoiesis ans in hemostasis
  • may play a role in the development of lung squamous cell carcinoma
  • plays a unique role in the regulation of isoform-specific TGF-beta signaling in keratinocytes
  • CD109 associates with caveolin-1 (CAV1), a major component of the caveolae
  • CD109 regulates TGFB1 receptor endocytosis and degradation to inhibit TGFB1 signaling
  • has the characteristics of a cancer-testis antigen
  • might be an important regulator of osteoclastogenesis
  • soluble CD109 antagonizes TGFB1-induced Smad2/3 phosphorylation, transcription and cell migration
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS immunity/defense
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • component of the TGF-beta receptor system, and a negative modulator of TGF-beta responses in keratinocytes
  • is a component of the exosome in conditioned medium
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • CD109, a GPI-anchored protein, is a TGFB1 co-receptor and a negative regulator of TGFB1 signaling
  • HSP90B1 serves as an essential chaperone for the cell-surface protein glycoprotein A repetitions predominant (CD109), which is a docking receptor for latent membrane-associated TGFB1
  • CD109, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein, is a novel TGFB1 co-receptor that negatively regulates TGFB1 signalling and responses
  • cell & other
    REGULATION
    activated by proteolytic cleavage and then capable of thioester-mediated covalent binding to adjacent molecules or cells
    Other processing of CD109 into 180kDa and 25kDa proteins by furin, followed by complex formation with TGF-beta receptor is required for the regulation of TGF-beta signaling in cancer cells and keratinocytes (Hagiwara 2010)

    Susceptibility
    Variant & Polymorphism SNP Gov alleles differ by an A to C single nucleotide polymorphism at position 2108 of the coding region, resulting in a tyr/ser substitution at CD109 amino acid 703 and this SNP correlates with the Gov phenotype
