Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a major structural
protein of the bone matrix. It constitutes approximately 12% of the
noncollagenous proteins in human bone and is synthesized by
skeletal-associated cell types, including hypertrophic
chondrocytes, osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts. The only
extraskeletal site of its synthesis is the trophoblast. This
protein binds to calcium and hydroxyapatite via its acidic amino
acid clusters, and mediates cell attachment through an RGD sequence
that recognizes the vitronectin receptor
