Biochem/physiol Actions

Elastin (ELN) provides elasticity and is integrated with other proteins from the ECM in elastic fibrils. Elastin undergoes changes of morphology with aging and at many disease states. In addition, several heritable diseases, such as supravalvular aortic stenosis, cutis laxa, Marfan syndrome, pseudoxanthoma elasticum and Buschke-Ollendorf syndrome, may result from molecular defects of elastin.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
