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
