FBLN2

This gene encodes an extracellular matrix protein, which belongs to the fibulin family. This protein binds various extracellular ligands and calcium. It may play a role during organ development, in particular, during the differentiation of heart, skeletal and neuronal structures. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Fibulin 2

Its binding to fibronectin and some other ligands is calcium dependent. May act as an adapter that mediates the interaction between FBN1 and ELN (PubMed:17255108).

Extracellular matrix

O-glycosylated with core 1 or possibly core 8 glycans. It is unsure if the O-glycosylation is on Thr-347 or Ser-348.
