Function

CCBE1 is a regulator of the development and growth of the lymphatic system. CCBE1 is necessary for the proteolytic activation of VEGF-C by ADAMTS3[7], which is the main growth factor for the lymphatic system [8].

Clinical significance

Hennekam syndrome type I (a generalized lymphatic dysplasia in humans) is associated with mutations in the CCBE1 gene[9], and the molecular etiology of the disease has been elucidated[7].
