Product Overview
Tag | His |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | Q14956 |
Synonym | HGFIN, NMB, Osteoactivin |
Background | GPNMB belongs to the PMEL / NMB family, also known as Osteoactivin and Hematopoietic growth factor-inducible neurokinin 1 ( HGFIN ), is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed in numerous cells, including osteoclasts, macrophages, dendritic cells, and tumor cells. It is suggested to influence osteoblast maturation, cell adhesion and migration. GPNMB protein acts as a downstream mediator of BMP-2 effects on osteoblast differentiation and function. GPNMB participates in bone mineralization, and functions as a negative regulator of inflammation in macrophages. Osteoactivin is expressed at high levels in normal and inflammatory liver macrophages suggesting a significant role in acute liver injury. The early-phase upregulation of Osteoactivin expression in the tubular epithelium in response to renal injury might play a role in triggering renal interstitial fibrosis via activation of matrix metalloproteinase expression and collagen remodeling in rats. Osteoactivin as a protein that is expressed in aggressive human breast cancers and is capable of promoting breast cancer metastasis to bone. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human GPNMB isoform 2 (Q14956-2) extracellular domain (Met 1-Pro 474) was fused with a His tag at the C-terminus. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Ala 22 |
AA Sequence | Met 1-Pro 474 |
Molecular Weight | The recombinant human GPNMB consists of 464 a.a. and predictes a molecular mass of 52.1 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rhGPNMB is approximately 85-90 kDa due to glycosylation. |
Purity | >98% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | Please contact us for detailed information |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. |
Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
