Omd ELISA Kit (Mouse) (OKBB01387)

Description of target: Osteomodulin (also called osteoadherin or osteoadherin proteoglycan) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the OMD gene. This gene is mapped to 13; 13 A5. Osteoadherin is expressed by fetal and adult osteoblasts but is not detectable in cartilage or tendon. In dental tissue, OSAD is expressed by odontoblasts and ameloblasts and is involved in the mineralization of bone and teeth. OSAD promotes the adhesion of osteoblasts and odontoblasts to the surrounding matrix, an interaction that is mediated by Integrin alpha V beta 3.;Species reactivity: Mouse;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: <50pg/ml
