Fibulin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FBLN2 gene.[3][4]

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.[4]

Interactions

FBLN2 has been shown to interact with Laminin, alpha 1,[5][6] Laminin, alpha 5[5] and Perlecan.[7][8]
