microfibril Gene Set

Dataset	GO Cellular Component Annotations 2025
Category	structural or functional annotations
Type	cellular component
Description	Extracellular matrix components occurring independently or along with elastin. Thought to have force-bearing functions in tendon. In addition to fibrillins, microfibrils may contain other associated proteins. (Gene Ontology, GO_0001527)
