General description

Fibrillin-1 is a multidomain cysteine-rich glycoprotein that belongs to the fibrillin protein family. It is encoded by the FBN1 gene mapped to human chromosome 15q21. Fibrillin-1 structure includes 43 calcium-binding epidermal growth factor (cbEGF)–like domains and 78 cysteine-containing TB motifs. The protein is ubiquitously present and is a vital component of elastic fiber–associated microfibrils in connective tissues. Anti-Fibrillin-1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Fibrillin-1 protein.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Fibrillin-1.

Immunogen Range: 2811-2860

Application

Anti-Fibrillin-1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemical staining (1:50).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fibrillin-1 protein plays an important role in the fibrillogenesis in elastic tissues and non-elastic tissues. It acts as an anchoring fiber and induces Smad2 signaling by regulating the bioavailability of endogenous transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1). Mutation in the FBN1 gene leads to the development of heritable disorder Marfan syndrome. Mutation of this gene also causes thoracic aortic aneurysms in patients without Marfan syndrome.
