Alternative Names
Microfibril-associated glycoprotein 4
Background
Microfibril-associated glycoprotein 4(MFAP4) is a secreted protein and contains 1 fibrinogen C-terminal domain, similarity to a bovine microfibril-associated protein. The protein has binding specificities for both collagen and carbohydrate. It is thought to be an extracellular matrix protein which is involved in calcium-dependent cell adhesion or intercellular interactions. The gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region.
