It weighs approximately 50 kDa and is widely expressed in various tissues including the central nervous system liver and developing limbs. As a prominent member of the RGM family DRAGON plays a part in critical cellular processes such as growth and differentiation although the detailed mechanical actions require further exploration.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThis protein is significant in iron metabolism and the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway. It acts not only independently but also as part of a complex with the BMP receptors playing roles in embryogenesis and neurodevelopment. Its binding properties enable it to modulate BMP signals important in processes like bone formation and neural patterning.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nDRAGON interacts primarily within the BMP signaling pathway and the hepcidin pathway. By coupling with BMPs such as BMP-2 and BMP-6 DRAGON influences processes like cellular growth and apoptosis guide. Its participation in the hepcidin pathway impacts iron homeostasis as it potentially regulates hepcidin an essential hormone produced by the liver that governs iron absorption and distribution in the body. These interactions highlight DRAGON's role in coordinating complex biological activities alongside proteins like hemojuvelin and neogenin.\u003cbr\u003e\nDRAGON's dysfunction links to conditions like anemia and cancer. Abnormalities in its expression or interaction may result in improper iron metabolism seen in anemia of chronic disease. Further its role in BMP signaling connects it to oncogenic processes contributing to tumor development in cancer. The interaction with other proteins such as BMPs and neogenin suggests that modulation of these pathways could present therapeutic avenues in diseases linked to DRAGON dysregulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850129559721,"sku":"ab96727","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab96727","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
