Chondroadherin defines a subgroup of its own by not having an N-terminal extension, having a different cysteine pattern and by being devoid of carbohydrate substitutions. Here we show that chondroadherin also have a different exon-intron organization and chromosomal localiz

We tested three predictions using personal advertisements from both traditional newspapers and internet dating services. In accordance with prediction
