Other Names | Latent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 1, LTBP-1, Transforming growth factor beta-1-binding protein 1, TGF-beta1-BP-1, LTBP1 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7780b was selected from the C-term region of human LTBP1. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | LTBP1 (HGNC:6714) |
---|---|
Function | Key regulator of transforming growth factor beta (TGFB1, TGFB2 and TGFB3) that controls TGF-beta activation by maintaining it in a latent state during storage in extracellular space (PubMed:2022183, PubMed:8617200, PubMed:8939931). Associates specifically via disulfide bonds with the Latency-associated peptide (LAP), which is the regulatory chain of TGF-beta, and regulates integrin-dependent activation of TGF-beta (PubMed:8617200, PubMed:8939931, PubMed:15184403). Outcompeted by LRRC32/GARP for binding to LAP regulatory chain of TGF-beta (PubMed:22278742). |
Cellular Location | Secreted. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix |
Tissue Location | Expressed in the aorta (at protein level) (PubMed:17293099). Isoform Long: Expressed in fibroblasts (PubMed:17293099). |

Background
LTBP1 may be involved in the assembly, secretion and targeting of TGFB1 to sites at which it is stored and/or activated. This protein may play critical roles in controlling and directing the activity of TGFB1, and it may have a structural role in the extra cellular matrix (ECM).
