|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Application Note | Specific for three periostin bands around ~93 kDa in mouse lung extract. The immunogenic peptide is present in all known splice variants of periostin and therefore this antibody recognizes all known molecular forms of periostin. The antibody also works well for immunohistochemistry on paraformaldehyde-fixed sections with a simple antigenretrieval protocol (incubate slides for 20 minutes at 90º C in 10 mM sodium citRate (pH 6.0)/ 0.1 % Tween-20). * The dilutions indicate recommended starting dilutions and the optimal dilutions or concentrations should be determined by the scientist. |
Properties
| Form | Liquid |
|---|---|
| Purification | Affinity Purified |

| Storage Instruction | For continuous use, store undiluted antibody at 2-8°C for up to a week. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Storage in frost free freezers is not recommended. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Suggest spin the vial prior to opening. The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use. |

| Gene Full Name | periostin, osteoblast specific factor |
| Background | Periostin is a matricellular protein, i.e. an extracellular matrix protein that interacts both with other ECM proteins and with cell-surface receptors. Like many other matricellular proteins, the function of periostin is important both in embryonic development and in the remodeling of adult tissues in response to pathological insults. Periostin was originally isolated as an osteoblast-specific marker that functions as a cell adhesion molecule for preosteoblasts and is thought to be involved in osteoblast recruitment, attachment and spreading (Kruzynska-Frejtag A. et al., 2004). Periostin has recently been shown to promote collagen fibrogenesis, inhibit differentiation of progenitor cells into cardiomyocytes and to be essential in maintaining the biomechanical properties of the adult myocardium (Norris et al., 2008) |

| Calculated MW | 93 kDa |
| PTM | Gamma-carboxylation is controversial. Gamma-carboxyglutamated; gamma-carboxyglutamate residues are formed by vitamin K dependent carboxylation; this may be required for calcium binding (PubMed:18450759). According to a more recent report, does not contain vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxyglutamate residues (PubMed:26273833). |
