SMART accession number:SM00274
Description: Follistatin-N-terminal domain-like, EGF-like. Region distinct from the kazal-like sequence
Interpro abstract (IPR003645):

This EGF-like domain resembles the follistatin-N-terminal domain, and is distinct from the kazal-like sequence. Follistatin binds to activin and is a specific inhibotor of the biosynthesis and secretion of pituitary follicle stimulating hormone. This domain is also found in prespore vesicle protein and agrin.
