Function
Inhibits IGF-mediated growth and developmental rates. 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. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 1 IGFBP N-terminal domain.
Contains 1 thyroglobulin type-1 domain. -
Domain
The C-terminus is required for IGF-binding and growth inhibition. -
Post-translational
modificationsO-glycosylated. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. - Information by UniProt
