Background: DMP-1 (dentin matrix protein-1), also known as dentin matrix acidic phosphoprotein-1, is a member of the small integrin ligand N-linked glycoprotein family. It is important for the mineralization of bone and dentin. DMP-1 is expressed in bone, tooth and hypertrophic cartilage. It is synthesized by preosteoblasts and contains a large number of acidic domains. DMP-1 localizes to the nucleus of undifferentiated osteoblasts where it functions as a transcriptional regulator for osteoblast-specific gene activation and induces osteoblast differentiation. During osteoblast maturation, DMP-1 undergoes a conformational change and becomes phosphorylated by casein kinase II in response to an influx of calcium ions to the nucleus. DMP-1 is then exported to the extracellular matrix (ECM) where it regulates the nucleation of hydroxyapatite and the formation of calcified tissue. DMP-1 is proteolytically processed into N- and C-terminal fragments in the ECM of bone and dentin. The protein has also been identified in bone as a high molecular weight proteoglycan comprised of the N-terminal DMP-1 fragment and chondroitin sulfate.The loss of DMP-1 can result in hypomineralized bone.

Purification and Purity: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).

Storage and Stability: Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Specificity: DMP1 polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of DMP1 protein.

Bioworld Molecular Weight: ~ 68 kDa
