DMP1 (Dentin Matrix Acidic Phosphoprotein 1, DMP-1, Dentin Matrix Protein 1) |

Description: DMP1 is an extracellular matrix protein and a member of the small integrin binding ligand N-linked glycoprotein family. It is critical for proper mineralization of bone and dentin, and is present in diverse cells of bone and tooth tissues. DMP1 contains a large number of acidic domains, multiple phosphorylation sites, a functional arg-gly-asp cell attachment sequence, and a DNA binding domain. DMP1 may also have a dual function during osteoblast differentiation. In the nucleus of undifferentiated osteoblasts the unphosphorylated form acts as a transcriptional component for activation of osteoblast-specific genes like osteocalcin. During the osteoblast to osteocyte transition phase it is phosphorylated and exported into the extracellular matrix, where it regulates nucleation of hydroxyapatite. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. |
