Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Bifunctional growth regulator that stimulates the growth of cultured chondrocytes in the presence of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) but inhibits the growth of cultured vascular endothelial cells. May contribute to the rapid growth of cartilage and vascular invasion prior to the replacement of cartilage by bone during endochondral bone development. Inhibits in vitro tube formation and mobilization of endothelial cells. Plays a role as antiangiogenic factor in cardiac valves to suppress neovascularization (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Chondromodulin-1: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix. Note=Accumulated in the inter- territorial matrix of cartilage.Chondrosurfactant protein: Endomembrane system {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Nasal and articular cartilage, and fetal epiphysis.
