CTGF wt Allele Definition

Human CTGF wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 6q23.1 and is approximately 3 kb in length. This allele, which encodes connective tissue growth factor protein, is involved in mitogen stimulation and cellular growth signal transduction through the TGFbeta/Smad signaling pathway. The stimulation appears to be regulated by growth factors or specific oncogenes.
