Other Names | EGF-containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein 1, Extracellular protein S1-5, Fibrillin-like protein, Fibulin-3, FIBL-3, EFEMP1, FBLN3, FBNL |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP9095a was selected from the N-term region of human EFEMP1. 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 | EFEMP1 |

Synonyms | FBLN3, FBNL |
Function | Binds EGFR, the EGF receptor, inducing EGFR autophosphorylation and the activation of downstream signaling pathways. May play a role in cell adhesion and migration. May function as a negative regulator of chondrocyte differentiation. In the olfactory epithelium, it may regulate glial cell migration, differentiation and the ability of glial cells to support neuronal neurite outgrowth. |
Cellular Location | Secreted, extracellular space. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix Note=Localizes to the lamina propria underneath the olfactory epithelium. |
Tissue Location | In the eye, associated with photoreceptor outer and inner segment regions, the nerve fiber layer, outer nuclear layer and inner and outer plexiform layers of the retina |

Background
EFEMP1 encodes a member of the fibulin family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins. Like all members of this family, the encoded protein contains tandemly repeated epidermal growth factor-like repeats followed by a C-terminus fibulin-type domain. This gene is upregulated in malignant gliomas and may play a role in the aggressive nature of these tumors.
