Molecular Weight: 100kDa

Comments:

Periostin is a disulfide linked 90 kDa

811 amino acid protein originally isolated as a osteoblast-specific factor that functions as a cell adhesion molecule for preosteoblasts and is thought to be involved in osteoblast recruitment

attachment and spreading. Additionally

periostin expression has previously been shown to be significantly increased by both transforming growth factor beta 1(TGF beta 1) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP2). Periostin has a typical signal sequence

followed by a cysteine-rich domain

a fourfold repeated domain and a C-terminal domain. The fourfold repeated domain of OSF2 shows homology with the insect protein fasciclin. Periostin mRNA is expressed in the developing mouse embryonic and fetal heart

and that it is localized to the endocardial cushions that ultimately divide the primitive heart tube into a four-chambered heart. Abnormal expression of periostin is also linked to angiogenesis and metastatsis in epithelial tumors.
