Summary
EMILIN1 (elastin microfibril interfacer 1, HGNC:19880) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2p23.3, encoding EMILIN-1 (Q9Y6C2). Involved in elastic and collagen fibers formation.
This gene encodes an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is characterized by an N-terminal microfibril interface domain, a coiled-coiled alpha-helical domain, a collagenous domain and a C-terminal globular C1q domain. The encoded protein associates with elastic fibers at the interface between elastin and microfibrils and may play a role in the development of elastic tissues including large blood vessels, dermis, heart and lung.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Involved in elastic and collagen fibers formation. It is required for EFEMP2 deposition into the extracellular matrix, and collagen network assembly and cross-linking via protein-lysine 6-oxidase/LOX activity. May be responsible for anchoring smooth muscle cells to elastic fibers, and may be involved in the processes that regulate vessel assembly. Has cell adhesive capacity.
Subunit / interactions. Homotrimer associated through a moderately stable interaction of the C-terminal globular C1q domains, allowing the nucleation of the triple helix and then a further quaternary assembly to higher-order polymers via intermolecular disulfide bonds. Interacts with EMILIN2. Interacts with EFEMP2; this interaction promotes the incorporation of EFEMP2 into the extracellular matrix.
Subcellular location. Secreted. Extracellular space. Extracellular matrix.
Tissue specificity. Distributed in tissues where resilience and elastic recoil are prominent. Highest levels in the adult small intestine, aorta, lung, uterus, and appendix and in the fetal spleen, kidney, lung, and heart; intermediate expression was detected in adult liver, ovary, colon, stomach, lymph node and spleen; adult heart, bladder, prostate, adrenal gland, mammary gland, placenta and kidney showed low expression whereas a series of other adult tissues, including skeletal muscle and different regions of adult brain show no expression. Detected in intramuscular nerve bundles, where it particularly localizes in the epineurium, the most external layer of dense connective tissue enclosing the nerve.
Disease relevance. Neuronopathy, distal hereditary motor, autosomal dominant 10 (HMND10) [MIM:620080] A form of distal hereditary motor neuronopathy, a heterogeneous group of neuromuscular diseases caused by selective degeneration of motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, without sensory deficit in the posterior horn. HMND10 is characterized by length-dependent motor neuropathy primarily affecting the lower limbs, and onset of distal muscle weakness and atrophy in early childhood resulting in walking difficulties and gait abnormalities. Some affected individuals have pyramidal signs, including hyperreflexia. More variable features may include mild intellectual disability, minor gyration defects on brain imaging, foot deformities, and connective tissue defects. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Arterial tortuosity-bone fragility syndrome (ATBFS) [MIM:620908] An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by congenital arterial tortuosity, mainly affecting the aorta and main aortic side branches, aneurysm of the aortic root, and bone fragility resulting in fractures of the ribs, clavicle, acromion, metatarsal, or long bones. Tortuosity of the retinal arteries is present in some patients. Connective tissue features include blue sclerae, mild cutis laxa with a thin and velvety skin, joint hyperlaxity, and arachnodactyly. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous. Its deposition precedes the appearance of elastin and is simultaneous with that of fibrillin 1.
