products description :
Fibronectin is an extracellular matrix (ECM) component and is one of the primary cell adhesion molecules.1 It is composed of multiple homologous repeats and contains many functional domains. The occurrence of different isoforms is due to alternative mRNA splicing of the ED-A, ED-B and III-CS regions and subsequent post-translational modification. Although non-reactive with adhesion receptors in its soluble state, fibronectin is highly adhesive when on the surface.2 Polymerization of fibronectin into ECM must be tightly regulated to ensure appropriate adhesive proporties upon ECM formation. Because of its ability to interact with many ligands (e.g. cells, heparin, fibrin, collagen, DNA, immunoglobulin), fibronectin plays an important role in normal

uniprot summary :
Function: Fibronectins bind cell surfaces and various compounds including collagen, fibrin, heparin, DNA, and actin. Fibronectins are involved in cell adhesion, cell motility, opsonization, wound healing, and maintenance of cell shape. May be involved in osteoblast compaction . By similarity. Subunit structure: Dimers or multimers of alternatively spliced variants, connected by 2 disulfide bonds near the carboxyl ends . By similarity. Tissue specificity: In early Xenopus embryo, cellular forms of fibronectin predominate which include both extra domains. In fibronectin of embryonic and adult liver the connecting strand 3 can be either completely excluded or included. Post-translational modification: Forms covalent cross-links mediated by a transglutaminase, such as F13A or TGM2, between a glutamine and the epsilon-amino group of a lysine residue, forming homopolymers and heteropolymers (e.g. fibrinogen-fibronectin, collagen-fibronectin heteropolymers). Sequence similarities: Contains 12 fibronectin type-I domains.Contains 2 fibronectin type-II domains.Contains 17 fibronectin type-III domains.
