NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a multipass transmembrane protein that is expressed in joints and other tissues and controls pyrophosphate levels in cultured cells. Progressive ankylosis-mediated control of pyrophosphate levels has been suggested as a possible mechanism regulating tissue calcification and susceptibility to arthritis in higher animals. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant craniometaphyseal dysplasia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
ANKH: Regulates intra- and extracellular levels of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi), probably functioning as PPi transporter. Defects in ANKH are the cause of chondrocalcinosis 2 (CCAL2). Chondrocalcinosis is a common cause of joint pain and arthritis caused by calcium deposition in articular cartilage and the presence of calcium hypophosphate crystals in synovial fluid, cartilage and periarticular soft tissue. CCAL2 inheritance is autosomal dominant. Defects in ANKH are the cause of craniometaphyseal dysplasia Jackson type (CMDJ). CMDJ is a rare autosomal dominant skeletal disorder characterized by abnormal bone formation and mineralization in membranous as well as endochondral bones. Progressive thickening of the bones can cause narrowing of cranial foramina and can lead to severe visual and neurological impairment, such as facial palsy and deafness. Belongs to the ANKH family.

Product Notes
The Mouse ANKH ankh (Catalog #AAA2604926) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2604926 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse ANKH. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Progressive ankylosis protein homolog, ELISA Kit" 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.Precautions
