EGF-containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EFEMP2 gene. [4] [5] [6]
A large number of extracellular matrix proteins have been found to contain variations of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain and have been implicated in functions as diverse as blood coagulation, activation of complement and determination of cell fate during development. EFEMP2 (also known as fibulin-4) contains four EGF2 domains and six calcium-binding EGF2 domains. This gene is widely expressed in a range of adult and fetal tissues. [6]
Elastin is a protein encoded by the ELN gene in humans. Elastin is a key component in the extracellular matrix of gnathostomes. It is highly elastic and present in connective tissue of the body to resume its shape after stretching or contracting. Elastin helps skin return to its original position whence poked or pinched. Elastin is also in important load-bearing tissue of vertebrates and used in places where storage of mechanical energy is required.
Collagen alpha-1 (XXVII) chain (COL27A1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL27A1 gene.
SUMO-conjugating enzyme UBC9 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the UBE2I gene. It is also sometimes referred to as "ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2I" or "ubiquitin carrier protein 9", even though these names do not accurately describe its function.
Laminin subunit beta-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LAMB1 gene.
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ADAMTS1 gene.
Gamma-interferon-inducible protein Ifi-16 (Ifi-16) also known as interferon-inducible myeloid differentiation transcriptional activator is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IFI16 gene.
Fibulin-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FBLN5 gene.
Fibulin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FBLN2 gene.
EGF-containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EFEMP1 gene.
Collagen alpha-1(XIV) chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL14A1 gene. It likely plays a role in collagen binding and cell-cell adhesion.
Dual specificity protein phosphatase 3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DUSP3 gene.
Latent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LTBP3 gene.
Extracellular matrix protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ECM1 gene.
Tubulointerstitial nephritis antigen-like is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TINAGL1 gene.
FRAS1-related extracellular matrix protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FREM1 gene.
FRAS1-related extracellular matrix protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FREM2 gene.

Thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the THSD1 gene.
Proline/serine-rich coiled-coil protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PSRC1 gene.
Myosin-15 also known as myosin, heavy chain 15 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYH15 gene.
