Scientific Background

BSP is also known as IBSP(integrin-binding sialoprotein). The protein encoded by this gene is a major structural protein of the bone matrix. Bone sialoprotein is an acidic glycoprotein of approximately 70 kD that undergoes extensive posttranslational modifications. It constitutes approximately 12% of the noncollagenous proteins in human bone and is synthesized by skeletal-associated cell types, including hypertrophic chondrocytes, osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts. The only extraskeletal site of its synthesis is the trophoblast. This protein binds to calcium and hydroxyapatite via its acidic amino acid clusters, and mediates cell attachment through an RGD sequence that recognizes the vitronectin receptor. The BSP gene is mapped to 4q22.1.
