Elastin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ELN gene. Elastin is a key component of the extracellular matrix in gnathostomes (jawed vertebrates)...

tissues contain high amounts of elastins. Elastins are synthesized by fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. Elastins are highly insoluble, and tropoelastins...

ganglioside substrates and other glycoconjugates. The GLB1 gene also encodes an elastin binding protein. In corn (Zea mays), Glb1 is a gene coding for the storage...

Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are synthetic biopolymers with potential applications in the fields of cancer therapy, tissue scaffolding, metal recovery...

component of the extracellular matrix composed of bundles of proteins (elastin) which are produced by a number of different cell types including fibroblasts...

specialized organs such as the cornea.: 161  Elastic fibers, made from elastin and fibrillin, also provide resistance to stretch forces.: 171  They are...

uniquely in elastin, a protein found in connective tissue such as skin, lungs, and elastic arteries. Desmosine is a component of elastin and cross links...

cationic, anionic and non-ionic bonds with elastin, the main constituent of elastic fiber tissue. Elastin has a strong affinity for the iron-hematoxylin...

vocal fold. There is a steady increase in the elastin content of the lamina propria as humans age (elastin is a yellow scleroprotein, the essential constituent...

elastic fiber networks and collagen type II fibers. The principal protein is elastin. Elastic cartilage is histologically similar to hyaline cartilage but contains...
