CRTAC1

Post-translational modifications

O-glycosylated.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in the interterritorial matrix of articular deep zone cartilage (at protein level). Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in brain. Isoform 1 is detected in lung and chondrocytes. Detected in cartilage, bone, cultured chondrocytes and lung, and at low levels in heart. Not detected in osteoblasts.
