SPON1 (Spondin 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with SPON1 include Peters-Plus Syndrome. Among its related pathways are p70S6K Signaling and Akt Signaling. An important paralog of this gene is SPON2. Cell adhesion protein that promotes the attachment of spinal cord and sensory neuron cells and the outgrowth of neurites in vitro. May contribute to the growth and guidance of axons in both the spinal cord and the PNS (By similarity). Major factor for vascular smooth muscle cell.
