Biological function summary
SPARC impacts processes related to cell communication and matrix dynamics. It does not form part of large complexes but functions through interactions with matrix molecules and receptors. SPARC regulates collagen fibrillogenesis and influences the bioavailability of growth factors. It further affects angiogenesis through its ability to alter cellular adhesion and spreading which impacts vascular development and repair processes.
Pathways
SPARC integrates into regulatory cascades such as the WNT signaling and TGF-β pathways. These pathways are essential for cellular growth repair and differentiation. In the context of the TGF-β signaling pathway SPARC modulates interactions with proteins like integrins and collagens impacting fibrotic processes and matrix assembly.

General info
Function
Appears to regulate cell growth through interactions with the extracellular matrix and cytokines. Binds calcium and copper, several types of collagen, albumin, thrombospondin, PDGF and cell membranes. There are two calcium binding sites; an acidic domain that binds 5 to 8 Ca(2+) with a low affinity and an EF-hand loop that binds a Ca(2+) ion with a high affinity.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the SPARC family.
