Description

Synthetic Peptide

UCMA Synthetic Peptide, PEP-0882, from Invitrogen.

UCMA is a gene that encodes for a protein that is specific to chondrocytes and highly charged. This protein is expressed abundantly in the upper immature zone of fetal and juvenile epiphyseal cartilage. The encoded protein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature protein that is secreted into the extracellular matrix. The glutamic acid residues in the protein undergo gamma carboxylation in a vitamin K-dependent manner. Undercarboxylation of the protein has been associated with osteoarthritis in humans. Alternative splicing of the gene results in multiple transcript variants that encode different isoforms. UCMA is also associated with diseases such as Osteoarthritis and Poland Syndrome.
