Secreted phosphoprotein 24 (Spp-24). This family represents a conserved region approximately 140 residues long within secreted phosphoprotein 24 (Spp-24), which seems to be restricted to vertebrates. This is a non-collagenous protein found in bone that is related in sequence to the cystatin family of thiol protease inhibitors. This suggests that Spp-24 could function to modulate the thiol protease activities known to be involved in bone turnover. It is also possible that the intact form of Spp-24 found in bone could be a precursor to a biologically active peptide that coordinates an aspect of bone turnover.

Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:  No Conserved Features/Sites Found for Spp-24
