Gene information for EMILIN1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
| Entrez gene ID | 11117 |
| Official gene symbol | EMILIN1 |
| Full name | elastin microfibril interfacer 1 |
| Aliases | ,DKFZp586M121,EMI,EMILIN,gp115, |
| Gene summary | This gene encodes an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is characterized by an N-terminal microfibril interface domain, a coiled-coiled alpha-helical domain, a collagenous domain and a C-terminal globular C1q domain. The encoded protein associates with elastic fibers at the interface between elastin and microfibrils and may play a role in the development of elastic tissues including large blood vessels, dermis, heart and lung.
