Summary: This gene encodes a protein belonging to the member of elastin microfibril interface-located (EMILIN) protein family. This family member is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that can interfere with tumor angiogenesis and growth. It serves as a transforming growth factor beta antagonist and can interfere with the VEGF-A/VEGFR2 pathway. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]
Expression: Broad expression in fat (RPKM 74.6), placenta (RPKM 22.4) and 20 other tissues See more

Multimerin-2 maintains vascular stability and permeability.

Loss of Multimerin-2 and EMILIN-2 Expression in Gastric Cancer Associate with Altered Angiogenesis
Title: Loss of Multimerin-2 and EMILIN-2 Expression in Gastric Cancer Associate with Altered Angiogenesis.
Results provide evidence identifying MMRN2 as a key molecule in regulating endothelial cell (EC) function and demonstrate that, during the angiogenic stimulation, its expression is controlled both transcriptionally and post-translationally by MMP9 for efficient EC sprouting.
Title: The angiostatic molecule Multimerin 2 is processed by MMP-9 to allow sprouting angiogenesis.
Data identify MMRN2 as a specific ligand for CD93. CD93 and MMRN2 are co-expressed in the blood vessels of various tumors. Moreover, disruption of the CD93-MMRN2 interaction reduced endothelial cell adhesion and migration. Site-directed mutagenesis identified different residue hotspots either directly or indirectly involved in the binding and propose a molecular model in which the coiled-coil domain of MMRN2 is engaged.
Title: Dissecting the CD93-Multimerin 2 interaction involved in cell adhesion and migration of the activated endothelium.
These findings identify novel protein interactions involving CLEC14A, CD93 and CD248 with MMRN2 as targetable components of vessel formation
Title: Multimerin-2 is a ligand for group 14 family C-type lectins CLEC14A, CD93 and CD248 spanning the endothelial pericyte interface.
Results suggest that CLEC14A-MMRN2 binding has a role in inducing sprouting angiogenesis during tumor growth, which has the potential to be manipulated in future antiangiogenic therapy design.
Title: Blocking CLEC14A-MMRN2 binding inhibits sprouting angiogenesis and tumour growth.
CLEC14A is a matrix component which binds to MMRN2 in the process of endothelial cells transformation in tumor angiogenesis.

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.
