Product Details

Application Details

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Liquid

Buffer: 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4 +/- 0.2) with 0.2 % NaN3.

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

Storage: 4 °C

Target Details

Target: Osteopontin (SPP1) (Secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1))

Alternative Name: Osteopontin

Background: Osteopontin (OPN), also known as bone sialoprotein I (BSP-1 or BNSP), secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1), is a human gene product. The gene has 7 exons, spans 5 kilobases in length and in humans it is located on 4q13. The protein is composed of ~300 amino acids residues and has ~30 carbohydrate residues attached including 10 sialic acid residues, which are attached to the protein during post-translational modification in the Golgi apparatus. Osteopontin has been implicated as an important factor in bone remodeling. Specifically, research suggests it plays a role in anchoring osteoclasts to the mineral matrix of bones.
