This gene encodes an extracellular matrix protein, which belongs to the fibulin family. This protein binds various extracellular ligands and calcium. It may play a role during organ development, in particular, during the differentiation of heart, skeletal and neuronal structures. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.[6]

Interactions

FBLN2 has been shown to interact with Laminin, alpha 1,[7][8] Laminin, alpha 5[7] and Perlecan.[9][10]
