Description: Osteopontin (OPN), also known as secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPP1 gene (secreted phosphoprotein 1). The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the attachment of osteoclasts to the mineralized bone matrix. And the encoded protein is secreted and binds hydroxyapatite with high affinity. The osteoclast vitronectin receptor is found in the cell membrane and may be involved in the binding to this protein. Also, this protein is a cytokine that upregulates expression of interferon-gamma and interleukin-12. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
Immunogen: Amino acids HEDMLVVDPKSKEEDKHLKFRISHELDSASSEVN of human Osteopontin/SPP1 were used as the immunogen for the SPP1 antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the SPP1 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
