The Line DANCE model. (A) This model illustrates how fibulin-5/DANCE promotes fibrillar deposition and cross-linking of tropoelastin molecules on microfibrils to promote the development of mature elastic fibers. (B) Truncated fibulin-5 cannot be deposited on microfibrils, and therefore cannot promote elastic fiber assembly.
