Gene information for EMILIN1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID11117
Official gene symbolEMILIN1
Full nameelastin microfibril interfacer 1
Aliases,DKFZp586M121,EMI,EMILIN,gp115,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is characterized by an N-terminal microfibril interface domain, a coiled-coiled alpha-helical domain, a collagenous domain and a C-terminal globular C1q domain. The encoded protein associates with elastic fibers at the interface between elastin and microfibrils and may play a role in the development of elastic tissues including large blood vessels, dermis, heart and lung.
