Scope note: Glicoproteína hexamérica de la matriz extracelular que se expresa transitoriamente en muchos órganos en desarrollo y que a menudo vuelve a expresarse en tumores. Se encuentra en los sistemas nervioso central y periférico, así como en el músculo liso y los tendones. (Kreis & Vale, Guidebook to the Extracellular Matrix and Adhesion Proteins, 1993, p93)
