Biological function

BSG (basigin/CD147) is a cell-surface glycoprotein with context-dependent functions. Reviewed evidence supports roles in retinal cell survival and development, association with membrane transport systems, and stimulation of IL6 secretion in some cell models.

Research context

BSG is studied in cell-surface signalling, transporter-associated membrane biology, retinal biology, inflammation and host-pathogen interactions.
