Abstract:Fibulin-2 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein with an important function in maintaining elastic properties in different tissues. Fibulin-2 belongs to a protein family with seven members characterized by sharing a globular domain at the carboxyterminus, which is called "fibulin-like", "FC domain" or domain III. Together with fibulin-1, fibulin-2 forms the so called subgroup 1 in the fibulin family which contains three anaphylatoxin modules in their sequence. Fibulin-2 does not only form part of elastic fibe… Show more
