Mouse CD44 hyaluronan-binding domain complex with glucuronic acid, NAG and ethylene glycerol (PDB code 2jcq) Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image Function CD44 is a glycoprotein involved in cell-cell interactions. CD44 is a receptor of hyaluronic acid (HA). CD44 undergoes post-translational modification. Its sialofucosylation changes it to a form which directs migration of stem cells to bone marrow.[1] (2jcq).[2] Relevance CD44 is a potential drug target for treatment of malignant neoplasms. Anti-CD44 antibody treatment lowers hyperglycemia and chronic inflammatory diseases.
