LTBP2 - latent transforming growth factor beta binding protein 2 Gene
Also Known as WMS3; GLC3D; LTBP3; MSPKA; MSTP031; C14orf141
Species: Homo sapiens
About LTBP2
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 131 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 9 phenotypes. Broad expression in lung (RPKM 30.6), ovary (RPKM 21.5) and 19 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of latent transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta binding proteins (LTBP), which are extracellular matrix proteins with multi-domain structure. This protein is the largest member of the LTBP family possessing unique regions and with most similarity to the fibrillins. It has thus been suggested that it may have multiple functions: as a member of the TGF-beta latent complex, as a structural component of microfibrils, and a role in cell adhesion.
