| Gene Symbol | MGP |
| Gene Full Name | matrix Gla protein |
| Background | The protein encoded by this gene is secreted and likely acts as an inhibitor of bone formation. The encoded protein is found in the organic matrix of bone and cartilage. Defects in this gene are a cause of Keutel syndrome (KS). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010] |
| Function | Associates with the organic matrix of bone and cartilage. Thought to act as an inhibitor of bone formation. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 12 kDa |
| PTM | Requires vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylation for its function. [UniProt] |
