Proteoglycan forms of the lymphocyte homing receptor CD44 are alternatively spliced variants containing the v3 exon.
The CD44 cell surface glycoprotein is expressed on a broad range of different tissues as multiple isoforms containing from one to ten alternatively spliced exons v1-v10 inserted within the extracellular domain. Differential glycosylation generates still further variability, yielding both N- and O-gl...
