Background: Opticin
Opticin (Oculoglycan) is a member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family with homology to class III extracellular matrix family members Epiphycan and Mimecan. It forms a 90 kDa noncovalent dimer that is a component of vitreous collagen fibrils in the eye and is also expressed in the retina, iris, ligaments and skin. Mature human Opticin shares 73% and 65% aa identity with mouse and rat, respectively. Mutations of Opticin have been associated with age-related macular degeneration.
