latent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 1
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable several functions, including microfibril binding activity; receptor ligand inhibitor activity; and transforming growth factor beta binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to mechanical stimulus; cellular response to parathyroid hormone stimulus; and cellular response to platelet-derived growth factor stimulus. Located in several cellular components, including dendrite; neuronal cell body; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Part of large latent transforming growth factor-beta complex. Biomarker of glomerulonephritis and transient cerebral ischemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cutis laxa. Orthologous to human LTBP1 (latent transforming growth factor beta binding protein 1).
