Gene information for FBLN1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2192
Official gene symbolFBLN1
Full namefibulin 1
Aliases,FBLN,FIBL1,
Gene summaryFibulin 1 is a secreted glycoprotein that becomes incorporated into a fibrillar extracellular matrix. Calcium-binding is apparently required to mediate its binding to laminin and nidogen. It mediates platelet adhesion via binding fibrinogen. Four splice variants which differ in the 3' end have been identified. Each variant encodes a different isoform, but no functional distinctions have been identified among the four variants. [provided by RefSeq]
