Example sentences for: fibulin-
How can you use “fibulin-” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Fibulin-1 may serve to anchor the mHB-EGF to its fibers as it migrates through the extracellular matrix.
Laminin is a glycoprotein composed of three chains, A, B1, and B2 in a cross-shaped molecule; this protein is found in basement membranes where it interacts with other such components as collagen IV, heparan-sulfate proteoglycan, and nidogen [ 45 ] . Laminin contains EGF-like modules in the amino-terminal region of the A, B1, and B2 chains [ 45 ] . Surprisingly, these modules do not appear to be involved in the binding of fibulin-1.
the interaction of fibulin-1C with aggrecan and versican) between extracellular matrix proteins argues for the interaction of the EGF-modules containing within fibulin-1C and LTBP-3 with either the heparin-binding region or with the EGF-like domain of HB-EGF.
2 % identity with the amino acid sequence for human fibulin-1C (GenBank accession number NP_001987).
Fibronectin contains three types of homology sequences, I-III; type I sequences bind heparin, Staphylococcus aureus, fibrin, and cell surfaces, type II sequences bind collagen and gelatin, and type III sequences bind DNA, cell surfaces, heparin, and fibulin-1 [ 40 43 ] . Fibulin-1 interacts with fibronectin through a heparin-binding region in type III 13 repeat; the binding of fibulin-1 to this site is independent of the binding of heparin as addition of exogenous heparin does not inhibit fibulin-1 binding to fibronectin [ 40 ] . The fibronectin-binding site in fibulin-1 is located in EGF-like modules 5 and 6 [ 44 ] ; the binding of fibulin-1 to fibronectin is a heterotypic interaction in which an EGF-like module binds to a non EGF-like domain (the type III 13 fibronectin repeat) [ 40 ] .
