NCIt definition : Vitronectin (478 aa, 54 kDa) is encoded by the human VTN gene. This protein is involved
in the modulation of cell-matrix adhesion and cell spreading.;
NCIt note : Somatomedin-B is a 44 amino acid cysteine-rich peptide that is proteolytically released
from the N-terminus of vitronectin.; Vitronectin is an extracellular protein that exists in either a single chain form
or a clipped, two chain form held together by a disulfide bond. (RefSeq);
