Background:

Small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) such as Decorin, Biglycan, Fibromodulin, and Lumican mediate extracellular matrix organization and are binding partners of TGFbeta. Fibromodulin is a collagen-binding Keratan sulphate proteoglycan that influences adhesion processes of connective tissue, and plays a role in fibrillogenesis by regulating collagen fibril spacing and thickness. The core proteins of SLRPs consist of a central region of leucine-rich repeats flanked by disulfide-linkages of the terminal domains. Fibromodulin is a ubiquitous protein that is most prominent in articular cartilage, tendon, and ligament. The human Fibromodulin gene maps to chromosome 1q32 and encodes a 376 amino acid protein.
