The elastic system fibers consist of three types—oxytalan, elaunin, and elastic fibers—differing in their relative microfibril and elastin contents. All three types are found in human gingiva, but human periodontal ligaments contain only elastin-free fibers.

Organization and Biomechanical Properties of Fibrillin Microfibrils
2004The evolution and function of multicellular organisms has required tissue flexibility and the necessity to withstand stretch. These properties underpin movement and allow responses to changing environments. The elastic fibre is a bio-composite material composed of two insoluble extracellular matrix assemblies; fibrillin-rich microfibrils and elastin ...

The structure and function of fibrillin.
Ciba Foundation symposium, 1996Fibrillin is a very large molecule whose primary structure is now known from the cloning and sequencing of 10 kb of cDNA. Immunohistochemical results suggest that one of the functions of fibrillin molecules is to contribute to the structure of the microfibril.
