EDB-Fibronectin Domain (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Extracellular matrix protein domain, Fibronectin type III repeat
01

Overview

The EDB-fibronectin domain (EDB-FN) is a 91-amino acid sequence inserted into the fibronectin protein via alternative splicing. It is highly expressed during embryonic development and re-expressed in pathological conditions such as cancer and angiogenesis. EDB-FN promotes cell adhesion, migration, and angiogenesis, contributing to tumor progression. Due to its restricted expression pattern, it serves as a cancer biomarker and therapeutic target for drug delivery and immunotherapy.
