Disease relevance of Spp2

  • Marek's disease virus (MDV) gene clones, RA2 and GA8, constructed in E. coli bacteriophage lambda-gt11 (gt11) were identified by a monoclonal antibody (MAb), H19.47, against a putative transformation-related viral antigen consisting of a complex of three phosphorylated polypeptides, pp41, pp38, and pp24 [1].
 

High impact information on Spp2

  • However, the insulin-stimulated, serine-specific phosphorylation of two endogenous phosphoproteins (pp24 and pp240) in the intact cell was blocked by 25 microM PAO [2].
  • We have localized the human SPP2 gene, which encodes spp24 to chromosome 2q37.1, determined its structure and mapped the start of transcription in liver [3].
  • The gene comprises eight exons spread over a region of approximately 27 kb with the cystatin-like region of spp24 encoded by four exons, rather than the three-exon structure typical of the genes encoding the archetypal cystatins [3].
