Functionalternative products:Isoforms are produced in a tissue- and time-specific manner during development,function:Extracellular matrix protein implicated in guidance of migrating neurons as well as axons during development, synaptic plasticity as well as neuronal regeneration. Promotes neurite outgrowth from cortical neurons grown on a monolayer of astrocytes. Ligand for integrins alpha-8/beta-1, alpha-9/beta-1, alpha-V/beta-3 and alpha-V/beta-6.,induction:By TGF-beta.,PTM:N-glycosylated.,similarity:Belongs to the tenascin family.,similarity:Contains 1 fibrinogen C-terminal domain.,similarity:Contains 15 EGF-like domains.,similarity:Contains 15 fibronectin type-III domains.,subunit:Homohexamer; disulfide-linked. A homotrimer may be formed in the triple coiled-coil region and may be stabilized by disulfide rings at both ends. Two of such half-hexabrachions may be disulfide linked within the ce

Backgroundtenascin C(TNC) Homo sapiens This gene encodes an extracellular matrix protein with a spatially and temporally restricted tissue distribution. This protein is homohexameric with disulfide-linked subunits, and contains multiple EGF-like and fibronectin type-III domains. It is implicated in guidance of migrating neurons as well as axons during development, synaptic plasticity, and neuronal regeneration. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011],
