This gene encodes a protein which induces ectopic bone formation in conjunction with transforming growth factor beta. This protein is a small keratan sulfate proteoglycan[6] which contains tandem leucine-rich repeats (LRR). The gene expresses three transcript variants.[5]
The level of expression of this gene has been correlated with enlarged hearts and more specifically left ventricular hypertrophy.[7][8]
