Protein function (UniProt)

Agrin

Depending on alternative splicing and post-translational modifications, it has a role in different processes, including neuromuscular junction formation and maintenance, and regulation of neurite outgrowth (By similarity). Also involved in positive regulation of cartilage formation through alpha-dystroglycan binding and up-regulation of SOX9 (PubMed:26290588)
