| Primary Identifier | IPR008673 | Type | Family |
| Short Name | MAGP |
| description | This family consists of several mammalian microfibril-associated glycoprotein (MAGP) 1 and 2 proteins. MAGP1 and 2 are components of elastic fibres. MAGP-1 has been proposed to bind a C-terminal region of tropoelastin, the soluble precursor of elastin. MAGP-2 was found to interact with fibrillin-1 and -2, as well as fibulin-1, another component of elastic fibres. This suggests that MAGP-2 may be important in the assembly of microfibrils []. |
