Background
The tenascin family of extracellular matrix proteins includes Tenascin-C (also designated cytotactin or Tenascin), Tenascin-R (also designated restrictin, TN-R or janusin) and Tenascin-X. Tenascin proteins function as substrate-adhesion molecules (SAMs) and are involved in regulating numerous developmental processes, such as morphogenetic cell migration and organogenesis. The tenascin family proteins arise from various splicing events in the region of coding for FNIII repeats.
