Additional Information Regarding the Antigen
Gene | POSTN |
Protein | Periostin |
Uniprot ID | Q15063 |
Function | Enhances incorporation of BMP1 in the fibronectin matrix of connective tissues, and subsequent proteolytic activation of lysyl oxidase LOX (By similarity). Induces cell attachment and spreading and plays a role in cell adhesion. May play a role in extracellular matrix mineralization. |
Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed with highest levels in aorta, stomach, lower gastrointestinal tract, placenta, uterus, thyroid tissue and breast. Up-regulated in epithelial ovarian tumors. Not expressed in normal ovaries. Also highly expressed at the tumor periphery of lung carcinoma tissue but not within the tumor. Overexpressed in breast cancers. |
Sub-cellular localization | Golgi apparatus . Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix. |
Sequence Similarities | Contains 1 EMI domain. |
