Background: Fibronectins are multi-domain glycoproteins that bind to a variety of substances including collagen, actin, heparin, DNA, fibrin and fibronectin receptors. Fibronectins are involved in a diverse array of important functions such as blood coagulation, wound healing, cell adhesion, cell differentiation and migration. Fibronectin type-III domain containing proteins, such as cell surface receptors and cell adhesion molecules, mediate protein-protein interactions and are involved in multiple biological processes including tissue development and metastasis. FNDC8 (fibronectin type III domain containing 8) is a 324 amino acid protein containing one fibronectin type-III domain. Conserved in human, chimpanzee, canine, bovine, mouse and rat, FNDC8 is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 17q12. Human chromosome 17 comprises over 2.5% of the human genome and encodes over 1,200 genes. Two key tumor suppressor genes are associated with chromosome 17, namely, p53 and BRCA1.
