The gene vwa8 encodes a protein containing von Willebrand factor A domains, which is involved in cell adhesion and extracellular matrix organization in Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. It is expressed in developing tissues, including the notochord and somites, and functions in cell adhesion and signaling pathways during embryonic development. The protein localizes to the extracellular matrix and is involved in cell-matrix adhesion processes. [-]
