DEFINITION |
Fibronectin (2386 aa, ~263 kDa) is encoded by the human FN1 gene. This protein is involved in cell adhesion- and migration-dependent processes including embryogenesis, wound healing, blood coagulation, host defense, and metastasis. |
DesignNote |
Fibronectin can be cleaved to form Ugl-Y1, Ugl-Y2, Ugl-Y3 and anastellin. (UniProt) Anastellin is a 76 amino acid fragment from carboxy-terminal portion of the first fibronectin type-III domain with potential antiangiogenic activity. Anastellin binds fibronectin and induces fibril formation; the resulting fibronectin polymer, superfibronectin, exhibits enhanced adhesive properties and may also inhibit angiogenesis. (UniProt) |
