Background Information
LTBP2, a 240 kDa extracellular glycoprotein mapping to chromosome 14q24, belongs to a family of latent TGF-βbinding proteins (LTBPs) that regulates a well-known growth factor, TGF-β. LTBP2 is an elastic fiber-associating protein whose function in elastogenesis is not clear, as a DANCE binding Protein. It may play an integral structural role in elastic-fiber architectural organization and/or assembly. LTBP2 associates covalently with small latent TGF-beta complex via Repeat B and Repeat C. Defects in LTBP2 are the cause of primary congenital glaucoma type 3D (GLC3D). LTBP2 is a role in the structural stability of ciliary zonules, and growth and development of lens. LTBP2 null mutations in an autosomal recessive ocular syndrome with megalocornea, spherophakia, and secondary glaucoma. LTBP2 is a biomarker of heart failure.
