Activity summary

LTBP2 also known as latent transforming growth factor-beta binding protein 2 is a glycoprotein involved in the regulation of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling. This protein has a mass of approximately 195 kDa. LTBP2 is expressed in a variety of tissues including the lungs heart and eyes. It plays an important role in the extracellular matrix where it is fundamental to the sequestration and subsequent activation of TGF-β.

Biological function summary

LTBP2 interacts with the extracellular matrix components and acts as a structural protein. LTBP2 is an important part of TGF-β complexes. By anchoring TGF-β in a latent form it controls the availability and activation of TGF-β which is necessary for processes like cell growth differentiation and tissue repair. Without LTBP2 the controlled release of TGF-β can be disrupted impacting various cell functions.

Pathways

LTBP2 regulates the TGF-β signaling pathway and maintains its equilibrium. This regulatory function links LTBP2 to the pathways involving cell proliferation and differentiation. LTBP2 closely interacts with other members of the LTBP family as well as proteins like fibrillin which are involved in the structural integrity of the extracellular matrix. These interactions are significant for maintaining proper signal transduction and cellular responses.

Associated diseases and disorders

LTBP2 mutations have associations with conditions such as glaucoma and Weill-Marchesani syndrome. In glaucoma abnormalities in LTBP2 might affect the integrity of the extracellular matrix influencing intraocular pressure regulation. It also connects to fibrillin-related disorders due to its interaction with fibrillin proteins. These associations highlight the importance of LTBP2 in both structural and signaling roles within the body.
