CCBE1

Collagen and calcium-binding EGF domain-containing protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CCBE1 gene.^[1]^[2]

Function

CCBE1 is a regulator of the development and growth of the lymphatic system. CCBE1 is necessary for the proteolytic activation of VEGF-C by ADAMTS3^[3], which is the main growth factor for the lymphatic system ^[4].

Clinical significance

Hennekam syndrome type I (a generalized lymphatic dysplasia in humans) is associated with mutations in the CCBE1 gene^[5], and the molecular etiology of the disease has been elucidated^[3].
