Endomucin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EMCN gene.^[5]^[6]^[7] Endomucin is a marker for endothelial cells^[8] and hematopoietic stem cells.^[9]

Function

EMCN is a mucin-like sialoglycoprotein that interferes with the assembly of focal adhesion complexes and inhibits interaction between cells and the extracellular matrix.^[5]^[7]
