Gene information for FMOD (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2331
Official gene symbolFMOD
Full namefibromodulin
Aliases,SLRR2E,
Gene summaryFibromodulin is a member of a family of small interstitial proteoglycans, containing a central region composed of leucine-rich repeats with 4 keratan sulfate chains flanked by disulfide-bonded terminal domains. It may participate in the assembly of the extracellular matrix as it interacts with type I and type II collagen fibrils and inhibits fibrillogenesis in vitro. It may also regulate TGF-beta activities by sequestering TGF-beta into the extracellular matrix. [provided by RefSeq]
