Facts about Signal peptide, CUB and EGF-like domain-containing protein 3.
Binds to TGFBR2 and activates TGFB signaling.
In lung cancer cells, could serve as an endogenous autocrine and paracrine ligand of TGFBR2, which might regulate TGFBR2 signaling and thus modulate epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cancer development..

Highly expressed in osteoblasts. In normal lung, mainly expressed in bronchial epithelial cells. Tends to be up-regulated in lung cancer cells.
Secreted. Cell surface.
PMID: 15234972 by Wu B.-T., et al. A novel secreted, cell-surface glycoprotein containing multiple epidermal growth factor-like repeats and one CUB domain is highly expressed in primary osteoblasts and bones.
PMID: 21441952 by Wu Y.Y., et al. SCUBE3 is an endogenous TGF-beta receptor ligand and regulates the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in lung cancer.
