Summary
FRAS1 (Fraser extracellular matrix complex subunit 1, HGNC:19185) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 4q21.21, encoding Extracellular matrix organizing protein FRAS1 (Q86XX4). Involved in extracellular matrix organization.
This gene encodes an extracellular matrix protein that appears to function in the regulation of epidermal-basement membrane adhesion and organogenesis during development. Mutations in this gene cause Fraser syndrome, a multisystem malformation that can include craniofacial, urogenital and respiratory system abnormalities. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 15)
- Locus FS1 at chromosome 4q21 is associated with Fraser syndrome. Mutation analysis identified five frameshift mutations in FRAS1, which encodes one member of a family of novel proteins related to an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein found in sea urchin. (PMID:12766769)
- In this review, recent studies support direct interactions between Fras1 and Frem proteins and shed new light on their role in the regulation of epidermal-basement membrane adhesion and organogenesis during development. (PMID:17654118)
- Supramodular nature of GRIP1 revealed by the structure of its PDZ12 tandem in complex with the carboxhyl tail of Fras1. (PMID:18155042)
- 11 new mutations in FRAS1 were identified in families with Fraser syndrome. (PMID:18671281)
- Heterozygous missense mutations in FRAS1 cause non-syndromic congenital abnormalities of the kidney and urinary tract in humans. (PMID:21900877)
- molecular, clinical findings of 4 fetuses with Fraser syndrome from 2 families; in family one, found nonsense mutation (c.3730C>T, p.R1244X) previously described; in family 2 found a novel nonsense mutation previously not known (c.370C>T, p.R124X) (PMID:22029163)
- Analysis of FRAS1 and STRA6 mutations in the same family with eye anomalies. (PMID:22283518)
- First case of a family with two patients affected by Fraser syndrome due to a deletion of 64 kb (deletion 4q21.21) and an additional novel frameshift mutation in exon 66 of the FRAS1 gene. (PMID:23473829)
- In 15 of 590 families, we identified recessive mutations in the genes FRAS1, FREM2, GRIP1, FREM1, ITGA8, and GREM1, all of which function in the interaction of the ureteric bud and the metanephric mesenchyme. (PMID:24700879)
- Based on these data, we conclude that deficiency of FREM2, and possibly FRAS1, are associated with an increased risk of developing Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and that loss of the FREM1/FREM2/FRAS1 complex, or its function, leads to anterior sac CDH development through its effects on mesothelial fold progression (PMID:29618029)
- Fraser extracellular matrix complex subunit 1 promotes liver metastasis of gastric cancer. (PMID:31597194)
- Two unrelated families with variable expression of Fraser syndrome due to the same pathogenic variant in the FRAS1 gene. (PMID:31999076)
- Novel loss of function variants in FRAS1 AND FREM2 underlie renal agenesis in consanguineous families. (PMID:32643034)
- A polymorphism in the promoter of FRAS1 is a candidate SNP associated with metastatic prostate cancer. (PMID:33956343)
- DCAF13 promotes ovarian cancer progression by activating FRAS1-mediated FAK signaling pathway. (PMID:39367995)

Function. Involved in extracellular matrix organization. Required for the regulation of epidermal-basement membrane adhesion responsible for proper organogenesis during embryonic development. Involved in brain organization and function.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in many adult tissues, with highest levels in kidney, pancreas and thalamus. Relatively high expression was also detected in fetal kidney and heart.
Disease relevance. Fraser syndrome 1 (FRASRS1) [MIM:219000] A form of Fraser syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by cryptophthalmos, cutaneous syndactyly, and urogenital abnormalities including renal agenesis or hypoplasia. Additional features include abnormalities of the larynx, ear malformations, and facial abnormalities. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. The Calx-beta domains bind calcium with high affinity and undergo a major conformational shift upon binding.
Similarity. Belongs to the FRAS1 family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 142 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
