Function
IGF-binding proteins prolong the half-life of the IGFs and have been shown to either inhibit or stimulate the growth promoting effects of the IGFs on cell culture. They alter the interaction of IGFs with their cell surface receptors. Promotes cell migration. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 1 IGFBP N-terminal domain.
Contains 1 thyroglobulin type-1 domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylated; probably by casein kinase II. Alters the affinity of the protein for IGFs. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. - Information by UniProt
