Recombinant human ACAN protein (NP_001126.3) is produced in Glycoengineered Mannose-5 Pichia pastoris. This expression system is used for the production of glycoproteins and antibodies with a mannose-5 structure at N-linked sites.
This gene is a member of the aggrecan/versican proteoglycan family. The encoded protein is an integral part of the extracellular matrix in cartilagenous tissue and it withstands compression in cartilage. Mutations in this gene may be involved in skeletal dysplasia and spinal degeneration. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been observed in this gene.
