Uniprot Description
FBN2: Fibrillins are structural components of 10-12 nm extracellular calcium-binding microfibrils, which occur either in association with elastin or in elastin-free bundles. Fibrillin-2- containing microfibrils regulate the early process of elastic fiber assembly. Regulates osteoblast maturation by controlling TGF-beta bioavailability and calibrating TGF-beta and BMP levels, respectively. Defects in FBN2 are the cause of distal arthrogryposis type 9 (DA9). A form of distal arthrogryposis, a disease characterized by congenital joint contractures that mainly involve two or more distal parts of the limbs, in the absence of a primary neurological or muscle disease. DA9 is a connective tissue disorder characterized by contractures, arachnodactyly, scoliosis, and crumpled ears. Belongs to the fibrillin family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Sheep FBN2 fbn2 (Catalog #AAA752906) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA752906 ELISA Kit recognizes Sheep FBN2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Fibrillin 2, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
