Protein Function and Prediction

Osteocrin (Ostn) is a secreted protein produced by osteoblasts (1). Ostn binds specifically and saturably to the NP peptide receptor-C (NPR-C) receptor (2).  Overexpression of Ostn resulted in animals that had elongated long bones and elevated bone cGMP levels (2).

Expression/Localization

In situ hybridization indicates that Ostn is highly expressed in the osteoblasts of cortical bones in embryonic mice (1).  Other studies have detected expression in mesenchymal tissues, including muscle, tendons, and ligaments (2;3).
