Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycan-4 Definition

Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4), encoded by the CSPG4 gene, plays a role in stabilizing cell-substratum interactions during early events of melanoma cell spreading on endothelial basement membranes. CSPG4 represents an integral membrane chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan expressed by human malignant melanoma cells. (from LocusLink)
