LTBP1 or Latent Transforming Growth Factor Beta Binding Protein 1 mechanically acts as an important regulator in the activation and release of Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF-β). It is part of the latent TGF-β complex binding to TGF-β to help control its availability in the extracellular matrix. LTBP1 has a molecular weight of approximately 190 kDa. The protein is expressed in many tissues including the lung skin and heart highlighting its widespread role in various physiological processes.
Biological function summary

Its main role is modulating the bioavailability and activity of TGF-β a protein important to cellular differentiation proliferation and apoptosis. As part of a larger latent TGF-β complex it determines the precise activation and function of TGF-β by anchoring it to the extracellular matrix. This regulation is important for maintaining tissue homeostasis and has implications in developmental and repair processes across different organ systems.

Pathways

LTBP1 plays a significant role in the TGF-β signaling pathway which is important for controlling cellular growth and differentiation. It is involved in linking TGF-β to large latent complexes impacting its sequestration and activation within the matrix. Through this pathway LTBP1 interacts with proteins such as integrins which help release the active form of TGF-β furthering downstream signaling activities.

LTBP1 is implicated in fibrotic diseases and certain cancers. Abnormal expression or function of LTBP1 can lead to dysregulation of TGF-β activity causing excessive tissue fibrosis as seen in systemic sclerosis or contributing to the progression of cancers like lung carcinoma. The interaction of LTBP1 with other proteins particularly integrins can exacerbate these conditions by derailing typical matrix remodeling and cellular signaling processes.

General info

Function

Key regulator of transforming growth factor beta (TGFB1, TGFB2 and TGFB3) that controls TGF-beta activation by maintaining it in a latent state during storage in extracellular space (PubMed : 2022183, PubMed : 8617200, PubMed : 8939931). Associates specifically via disulfide bonds with the Latency-associated peptide (LAP), which is the regulatory chain of TGF-beta, and regulates integrin-dependent activation of TGF-beta (PubMed : 15184403, PubMed : 8617200, PubMed : 8939931). Outcompeted by LRRC32/GARP for binding to LAP regulatory chain of TGF-beta (PubMed : 22278742).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the LTBP family.

Post-translational modifications

Contains hydroxylated asparagine residues.. Isoform Short N-terminus is blocked.. Two intrachain disulfide bonds from the TB3 domain are rearranged upon TGFB1 binding, and form interchain bonds with TGFB1 propeptide, anchoring it to the extracellular matrix.. O-glycosylated on serine residues by POGLUT2 and POGLUT3.
