Fibulin-1

Patent Pending FBLN1 is the gene encoding fibulin-1, an extracellular matrix and plasma protein. Fibulin-1 is a secreted glycoprotein that is found in association with extracellular matrix structures including fibronectin-containing fibers, elastin-containing fibers and basement membranes. Fibulin-1 binds to a number of extracellular matrix constituents including fibronectin,[3] nidogen-1, and the proteoglycan, versican.
