Background Information

Matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (MEPE), also known as osteoblast/osteocyte factor 45 (OF45), is amember of the small integrin-binding ligand N-linked glycopro-tein (SIBLING) family (PMID: 12952171). MEPE promotes renal phosphate excretion and modulates mineralization (PMID: 22582013). It can be phosphorylated by secreted protein kinases. (PMID: 14962809). MEPE is expressed in osteoblasts, osteocytes and odontoblasts, and the expression has also been reported in numerous human tumor cell lines (PMID: 14962809; 20145617). It is a 525-amino acid protein with a calculated molecular weight of 58 kDa. This antibody raised against a full-length human MEPE protein detects a major band of 98 kDa.
