Matrix Gla Protein

Preferred Label : Matrix Gla Protein;

NCIt synonyms : MGP; MGLAP; Gamma-Carboxyglutamic Acid Protein, Matrix; Cell Growth-Inhibiting Gene 36 Protein; Matrix Gamma-Carboxyglutamic Acid Protein;

NCIt definition : Matrix Gla protein (103 aa, 12 kDa) is encoded by the human MGP gene. This protein plays a role in the regulation of bone formation and the inhibition of tissue calcification.;

NCIt note : The vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylation status of matrix Gla protein may be inversely correlated with calcification of the vasculature in human patients with cardiovascular disease and calcification of the synovial membranes in osteoarthritis patients. (EntrezGene);
