Background
secreted phosphoprotein 1(SPP1) Homo sapiens The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the attachment of osteoclasts to the mineralized bone matrix. The encoded protein is secreted and binds hydroxyapatite with high affinity. The osteoclast vitronectin receptor is found in the cell membrane and may be involved in the binding to this protein. This protein is also a cytokine that upregulates expression of interferon-gamma and interleukin-12. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function
disease:This protein plays a principal role in urinary stone formation as the stone matrix.,function:Acts as a cytokine involved in enhancing production of interferon-gamma and interleukin-12 and reducing production of interleukin-10 and is essential in the pathway that leads to type I immunity.,function:Binds tightly to hydroxyapatite. Appears to form an integral part of the mineralized matrix. Probably important to cell-matrix interaction.,online information:Osteopontin entry,PTM:Extensively phosphorylated on clustered serine residues.,PTM:N- and O-glycosylated.,similarity:Belongs to the osteopontin family.,subunit:Ligand for integrin alpha-V/beta-3.,
