Background: Tenomodulin (TEM), also designated chondromodulin-I-like protein (CHM-1L), myodulin or tendin, acts as an angiogenesis inhibitor. It is a single-pass type II membrane protein that belongs to the chondromodulin family of proteins. The deduced 317 amino acid protein contains an N-terminal transmembrane domain and a putative antiangiogenic domain comprised of eight cysteines. Human Tenomodulin shares 96% amino acid identity with mouse Tenomodulin, and it shares 65% identity in a 65-amino acid C-terminal stretch with chondromodulin I. Tenomodulin is expressed in skeletal muscle, eye, whole rib and dense connective tissues, such as epimysium and tendon.
