MFAP4 Antibodies

MFAP4, also known as Microfibril-associated glycoprotein 4, has 2 isoforms, a 255 amino acid short isoform that is 29 kDa and a long 297 amino acid isoforms that is 33 kDa, binding specificities for both collagen and carbohydrate, and it is thought to be an extracellular matrix protein which is involved in cell adhesion or intercellular interactions. The protein is being studied for its involvement in smith-magenis syndrome, intracranial aneurysm, liver cirrhosis, and ovarian cancer. MFAP4 protein involvement has been observed with relation to SFTPD and HDAC1 in molecules associated with elastic fibres, extracellular matrix organization, and elastic fibre formation pathways.
