Osteopontin (OPN) is a 34 kDa sialic acid rich member of small integrin-binding ligand N-linked glycoproteins. It is expressed in many different tissues and is post-translationally modified at multiple sites with both glycosylation and phosphorylation. The mature post-translationally modified protein is 60 kDa. OPN is involved with cell survival, proliferation, invasion, and stem like behavior. OPN can interact with CD44, bind hydroxyapatite, and activates many integrins. These interactions are important for OPN function in cell matrix formation. A higher presence of OPN has been found in a variety of cancers, leading to increased tumor growth and metastasis. In addition, OPN is involved in type I immunity through its function as a cytokine where it can enhance production of interferon-gamma and interleukin-12 and reduce production of interleukin-10.

Western blot analysis of human recombinant osteopontin protein (lane 1 & 2) or human MDA-MB-231 cells (lane 3 & 4). The blots were probed with mouse monoclonal anti-Osteopontin (OM5741) at a dilution of 1:1000 (lane 1), 1:4000 (lane 2), 1:250 (lane 3), and 1:1000 (lane 4).

Immunocytochemical labeling of Osteopontin in paraformaldehyde fixed and NP-40 permeabilized MCF-7 cells. The cells were labeled with mouse monoclonal anti-Osteopontin (M574). The antibody was detected using goat anti-mouse DyLight® 594.

Clone M574 was generated from a recombinant protein containing amino acid residues in the N-terminal region of human osteopontin. This sequence has high homology with rat and mouse osteopontin.

Mouse monoclonal antibody purified with protein A chromatography is supplied in 100µl phosphate-buffered saline, 50% glycerol, 1 mg/ml BSA, and 0.05% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Stable for 1 year.

The products are are safely shipped at ambient temperature for both domestic and international shipments. Each product is guaranteed to match the specifications as indicated on the corresponding technical data sheet. Please store at -20C upon arrival for long term storage.

Clone M574 was purified using Protein G chromatography. The antibody detects a 60 kDa* protein corresponding to the molecular mass of Osteopontin on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human MDA-MB-231 cells and human full length recombinant Osteopontin protein.

*All molecular weights (MW) are confirmed by comparison to Bio-Rad Rainbow Markers and to western blot mobilities of known proteins with similar MW.
