Summary: Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic limb morphogenesis; metanephros morphogenesis; and roof of mouth development. Located in basement membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; body cavity or lining; brain; sensory organ; and skin. Used to study Fraser syndrome and clubfoot.

Behavioural effects of extracellular matrix protein Fras1 depletion in the mouse.
Title: Behavioural effects of extracellular matrix protein Fras1 depletion in the mouse.
The close correlation between limb bud epidermal blistering, decreased Msx2 expression, and reduced ICD in the Fras1(rdf) hindlimb buds suggests that epithelium detachment from the mesenchyme may create a physical gap that interrupts the transmission of BMP, among other signals, resulting in soft tissue syndactyly.
Title: Syndactyly in a novel Fras1(rdf) mutant results from interruption of signals for interdigital apoptosis.
the role of Fras1 in development
Title: bfb, a novel ENU-induced blebs mutant resulting from a missense mutation in Fras1.
Targeted deletion of Fras1 in kidney podocytes circumvented skin blistering, renal agenesis, and early death.
Title: Generation of mice with a conditional null Fraser syndrome 1 (Fras1) allele.
Report Fras1 up-regulation/Frem down-regulation in nephrons from mice with polycystic kidney disease and Frem2 mutations.
Title: Expression of Fraser syndrome genes in normal and polycystic murine kidneys.
The QBRICK, together with Fras1, defines the ability of BMs to bind integrin 81 through modulating the BM assembly of nephronectin, thereby regulating the integrin 81-mediated signals transmitted from the ureteric buds to the metanephric mesenchyme.
Title: Basement membrane assembly of the integrin α8β1 ligand nephronectin requires Fraser syndrome-associated proteins.
Fras1 is expressed in the branching ureteric bud; renal agenesis occurs in homozygous Fras1 null mutant blebbed (bl) mice on a C57BL6J background.
Title: Fras1, a basement membrane-associated protein mutated in Fraser syndrome, mediates both the initiation of the mammalian kidney and the integrity of renal glomeruli.
The localization pattern of Fras1 and Frem2 was indistinguishable, while both proteins along with Frem3 could be detected even in the absence of Frem1.
Title: Differential localization profile of Fras1/Frem proteins in epithelial basement membranes of newborn and adult mice.
Fras1 is not only essential as a component of a macromolecular complex for the extracellular stabilization of Frem2 but it is also required for its proper intracellular trafficking and export from embryonic epithelial cells.
Title: Basement membrane localization of Frem3 is independent of the Fras1/Frem1/Frem2 protein complex within the sublamina densa.
Taken together, our findings indicate that besides a cooperative function with Fras1 in embryonic basement membranes, Frem1 can also act independently in processes related to epidermal differentiation.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
