== Function ==


[[Fibronectin]] (Fn) is a glycoprotein which binds extracellular matrix components like integrin, collagen, fibrin and others.  It is a component of cell adhesion<ref>PMID:12244123</ref>.


== Relevance ==


Fn is associated with wound healing. Fn is a potential marker for radiation resistance.


== Disease ==


Overexpression of Fn1 is associated with lung cancer.


== Structural insights ==


 
Fn is a dimer of homologous monomers linked by S-S bond.  Each monomer contains 3 types of modules: FnI, FnII and FnIII.  Each module contains several numbered protein binding domains, i.e., 6FnI+1-2FnII is the gelatin binding domain (GBD).
