Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** SSPN is a member of the sialoglycoprotein family, characterized by its high sialic acid content. This unique feature enables SSPN to interact with other proteins and lipids, facilitating its role in cell adhesion and signaling. SSPN has been identified as a component of the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex (DAGC), which plays a crucial role in maintaining muscle integrity and function. Additionally, SSPN has been implicated in the regulation of muscle contraction and the formation of transport vesicles. **Pathways and Functions:** SSPN's involvement in various cellular processes can be attributed to its interactions with other proteins and lipids. Some of the key pathways and functions associated with SSPN include: 1. **Cell Adhesion:** SSPN's high sialic acid content enables it to interact with selectins and other adhesion molecules, facilitating cell-cell interactions and tissue organization. 2. **Muscle Contraction:** SSPN's presence in the DAGC complex enables it to regulate muscle contraction by modulating the activity of dystrophin and other muscle proteins. 3. **Transport Vesicle Formation:** SSPN has been implicated in the formation of transport vesicles, which are essential for the regulation of cellular trafficking and protein transport. 4. **Signaling:** SSPN's interactions with other proteins and lipids enable it to regulate signaling pathways, including those involved in cell growth, differentiation, and survival. **Clinical Significance:** The multifaceted role of SSPN in various cellular processes makes it an important protein in the context of human disease. Some of the clinical implications of SSPN dysregulation include: 1. **Muscle Disorders:** SSPN's role in maintaining muscle integrity and function makes it an important protein in the context of muscle disorders, such as muscular dystrophy. 2. **Neurological Disorders:** SSPN's involvement in signaling pathways and cell adhesion makes it an important protein in the context of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 3. **Cancer:** SSPN's role in cell adhesion and signaling makes it an important protein in the context of cancer, where dysregulation of SSPN has been implicated in tumor progression and metastasis. In conclusion, SSPN is a multifaceted protein that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including cell adhesion, muscle contraction, and transport vesicle formation. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the mechanisms and functions of SSPN.
