Facts about Discoidin domain-containing receptor 2.
Regulates osteoblast differentiation and chondrocyte maturation with a signaling pathway that involves MAP kinases and leads to the activation of this transcription factor RUNX2. Regulates remodeling of the extracellular matrix from up-regulation of the collagenases MMP1, MMP2 and MMP13, and thereby facilitates cell migration and tumor cell invasion.
