Introduction
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.
Description
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. GPNMB is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
