Clone: Polyclonal
Gene Name: POSTN
Gene ID: 10631
Function: Induces cell attachment and spreading and plays a role in cell adhesion (PubMed:12235007) . Enhances incorporation of BMP1 in the fibronectin matrix of connective tissues, and subsequent proteolytic activation of lysyl oxidase LOX (By similarity) .
Summary: Tissue Location: 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.
