NCBI Description

This gene encodes a secreted extracellular matrix protein that functions in tissue development and regeneration, including wound healing, and ventricular remodeling following myocardial infarction. The encoded protein binds to integrins to support adhesion and migration of epithelial cells. This protein plays a role in cancer stem cell maintenance and metastasis. Mice lacking this gene exhibit cardiac valve disease, and skeletal and dental defects. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

Uniprot Description

POSTN: Binds to heparin. Induces cell attachment and spreading and plays a role in cell adhesion. May play a role in extracellular matrix mineralization. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Secreted; Cell adhesion; Secreted, signal peptide

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 13q13.3

Cellular Component: extracellular matrix; proteinaceous extracellular matrix; extracellular space; trans-Golgi network

Molecular Function: heparin binding; protein binding; cell adhesion molecule binding

Biological Process: tissue development; extracellular matrix organization and biogenesis; regulation of Notch signaling pathway; cell adhesion; skeletal development

Product Notes

The POSTN postn (Catalog #AAA6432344) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The POSTN (PN, Osteoblast-specific Factor 2, OSF2, OSF-2, PDLPOSTN, Periostin) (MaxLight 550) reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's POSTN can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB). IHC: 1:50-1:200 WB: 1:500-1:2000 Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the POSTN postn for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "POSTN, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
