Function
Constitutes 1-2% of the total bone protein. It binds strongly to apatite and calcium. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the osteocalcin/matrix Gla protein family.
Contains 1 Gla (gamma-carboxy-glutamate) domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsGamma-carboxyglutamate residues are formed by vitamin K dependent carboxylation. These residues are essential for the binding of calcium. -
