Involvement in diseaseDefects in LTBP2 are the cause of primary congenital glaucoma type 3D (GLC3D) [MIM:613086]. An autosomal recessive form of primary congenital glaucoma (PCG). PCG is characterized by marked increase of intraocular pressure at birth or early childhood, large ocular globes (buphthalmos) and corneal edema. It results from developmental defects of the trabecular meshwork and anterior chamber angle of the eye that prevent adequate drainage of aqueous humor.
Defects in LTBP2 are the cause of microspherophakia (MCSPH) [MIM:251750]. It is a rare disease characterized by smaller and more spherical lenses than normal bilaterally, an increased anteroposterior thickness of the lens and highly myopic eyes. Lens dislocation or subluxation may occur, leading to defective accommodation. -
Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the LTBP family.
Contains 20 EGF-like domains.
Contains 4 TB (TGF-beta binding) domains. -
DomainAssociates covalently with small latent TGF-beta complex via Repeat B and Repeat C.
-
Post-translational
modificationsContains hydroxylated asparagine residues. -
Cellular localizationSecreted. Localized in nuchal ligament and aorta to the fibrillin-containing, microfibrillar component of elastic fibers.
