Mouse Recombinant Protein

Specifications

Product Data
Species	Mouse
Protein Source	Human
Expression cDNA Clone or AA Sequence	Protein Sequence (showhide) Gln24-Tyr211
Tag	C-His
Buffer	Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Note	Recombinant Mouse Sclerostin is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Gln24-Tyr211 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.

Stability	12 months from date of despatch
Reference Data
Synonyms	Sclerostin; Sost
Summary	Sclerostin (SOST) is a member of the cerberus/DAN family, a group of secreted glycoproteins characterized by a cysteine-knot motif. Cerberus/DAN family members are putative BMP antagonists, and include Dan, Cerberus, Gremlin, PRDC, and Caronte. While the overall sequence identity between members of the family is low, they have conserved spacing of six cysteine residues. Cerberus and Dan have an additional cysteine residue used for dimerization; however, SOST does not and is secreted as a monomer. SOST was originally identified as an important regulator of bone homeostasis. SOST is expressed by osteoclasts in developing bones of mouse embryos, including both intramembranously forming skull bones and endochondrally forming long bones. SOST plays a physiological role as a negative regulator of bone formation by repressing BMP-induced osteogenesis. SOST has been shown to have unique ligand specificity, binding BMP-5, -6, and -7 with high affinity and BMP-2 and -4 with low affinity.
