fibulin-1; FIBL-1 (FBLN1)
Function:
- incorporated into fibronectin-containing matrix fibers
- may play a role in cell adhesion & migration along protein fibers within the extracellular matrix
- may have role in developmental processes & in supramolecular organization of extracellular matrix architecture, especially basement membranes
- role in cellular transformation & tumor invasion
- appears to be a tumor suppressor
- may play a role in haemostasis & thrombosis owing to its ability to bind fibrinogen & incorporate into clots.
- possible role in modulating neurotrophic activities of APP, particularly soluble APP
- homomultimerizes & interacts with various extracellular matrix components such as FN1, LAMA1, LAMA2, NID, ACAN, CSPG2 & type 4 collagen
- interacts also APP, NOV, FGB & HPV type 16, HPV type 18, HPV type 31 & BPV type 1 E6 proteins
- interacts with FBLN7 (putative)
Structure:
- belongs to the fibulin family
- contains 3 anaphylatoxin-like domains
- contains 9 EGF-like domains
Compartment:
- secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=4; A,B,C,D
Expression:
- isoform A & isoform B are only expressed in placenta
- isoform C & isoform D are expressed in a variety of tissues & cultured cells
- widely expressed during embryonic development
- prominent in the matrix of the leptomeninges, in basement membranes of the neuroepithelium & the perineurium of peripheral nerves
- in embryos of gestational week 4, staining was observed in the early mesenchymal bone anlagen
- in gestational week 4 6.5 & 8, all perichondrial structures showed expression
- chondrocytes themselves showed no staining
- in gestational week 10, expression is prominent in the interterritorial matrix surrounding the hypertrophic chondrocytes
- induced expression increased by estrogen in ovarian cancer cells
Pathology:
- chromosomal translocation t(12;22)(p11.2;q13.3) involving FBLN1 with RASSF8 is found in a complex type of synpolydactyly associated with metacarpal & metatarsal synostoses
- the t(12;22)(p11.2;q13.3) translocation may result in haploinsufficiency of the isoform D splice variant, which could lead to the observed limb malformation
- elevated expression & altered processing of FBLN1 protein is associated with breast cancer
