Background: Latent TGF-beta bp2/LTBP-2

LTBP-2 is a 240 kDa member of the LTBP and fibrillin families. Unlike other LTBP, LTBP-2 is not a component of the large latent TGF-beta complex. LTBP-2 is a secreted calcium-binding extracellular matrix glycoprotein of elastic tissue 10 nm microfibrils, especially in the lung. The 1786 aa mature human LTBP2 contains 20 EGF‑like domains and four 8-cysteine repeats and shares 80% aa identity with mouse LTBP-2. An RGD sequence and a proline-rich sequence may mediate adhesion of melanoma cells, but for fibroblasts LTBP-2 may actually be an antiadhesion protein. In vivo, proteolysis by plasmin and elastase is likely and may cleave putative adhesion sites.
