FRAS1-related extracellular matrix protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FREM2 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Smyth I, Du X, Taylor MS, Justice MJ, Beutler B, Jackson IJ | title = The extracellular matrix gene Frem1 is essential for the normal adhesion of the embryonic epidermis | journal = Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A | volume = 101 | issue = 37 | pages = 13560–5 |date=Sep 2004 | pmid = 15345741 | pmc = 518794 | doi = 10.1073/pnas.0402760101 | bibcode = 2004PNAS..10113560S | doi-access = free }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: FREM2 FRAS1 related extracellular matrix protein 2| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=341640}}

This gene encodes a membrane protein that belongs to the FRAS1 family. This extracellular matrix protein is thought to be required for maintaining the integrity of the skin epithelium and the differentiated state of renal epithelia. The protein localizes to the basement membrane, forming a ternary complex that plays a role in epidermal-dermal interactions during morphogenetic processes. Mutations in this gene are associated with Fraser syndrome.
