Description

SDCBP (syndecan binding protein), also known as syntenin or MDA-9, encodes a scaffold protein that binds to the cytoplasmic domain of syndecans. It plays a key role in exosome biogenesis, cell adhesion, cytoskeletal organization, and intracellular trafficking. SDCBP is overexpressed in multiple cancers and is implicated in tumor progression and metastasis.

Protein Summary

SDCBP encodes syntenin, a 298-amino acid PDZ domain-containing scaffold protein. It localizes to the plasma membrane and endosomal compartments, where it links syndecans to cytoskeletal and signaling molecules. Syntenin is critical for exosome production and is frequently upregulated in cancers, promoting invasion and metastasis.
