Novel proteins from A. mylitta

Description and function of proteins similar to DFPs.

DFP-1, DFP-2, DFP-3

1. Stromal cell derived factor receptor 2 homologue

Homo sapiens [GenBank:NM_001013660.1]

(catecholamine catabolism) reeler domain

 

2. Spondin

Bos taurus [GenBank:Q9GLX9]

H. sapiens [GenBank:Q9HCB6]

Extracellular matrix, cell adhesion protein that promotes the attachment of spinal cord and sensory neuron cells

 

3. Reelin precursor
