Glycoprotein Nmb (GPNMB) is a member of the PMEL/NMB family. GPNMB is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein which exhibits homology to the pMEL17 precursor, a melanocyte-specific protein. GPNMB is expressed in the lowly metastatic human melanoma cell lines and xenografts but has no expression in the highly metastatic cell lines. GPNMB might be involved in growth delay and reduction of metastatic potential. GPNMB is up-regulated in a number of cancer cells, including in glioblastoma multiforme. GPNMB is expressed in many melanoma cells, as well as in tissue macrophages, including liver Kuppfer cells and lung alveolar macrophages, in podocytes and in some cells of the ciliary body of the eye (at protein level). GPNMB is hardly detectable in the healthy brain.
GPNMB Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 462 amino acids (22-474a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 51.8kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 50-70kDa).GPNMB is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
UniProt Protein Function: | GPNMB: Could be a melanogenic enzyme. Belongs to the PMEL/NMB family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:Membrane protein, integral Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 7p15 Cellular Component: integral to plasma membrane; melanosome; integral to membrane Molecular Function:integrin binding; heparin binding Biological Process: osteoblast differentiation; negative regulation of cell proliferation; cell adhesion; bone mineralization |
NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein which shows homology to the pMEL17 precursor, a melanocyte-specific protein. GPNMB shows expression in the lowly metastatic human melanoma cell lines and xenografts but does not show expression in the highly metastatic cell lines. GPNMB may be involved in growth delay and reduction of metastatic potential. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
