Application

Anti-FAM20C (AB1) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1.0µg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

FAM20C (Family with sequence similarity 20, member C) is a secretory Golgi casein kinase involved in biomineralization, enamel formation, lipid homeostasis, wound healing, cell migration and adhesion. It has the ability to phosphorylate S-x-E/pS motifs on proteins in milk and in the extracellular matrix of bones and teeth. During enamel formation, it forms a functional complex by binding to a pseudokinase, Fam20A, which triggers extracellular protein phosphorylation within the secretory pathway. Mutations in FAM20C gene cause Raine syndrome, hypophosphatemia, hyperphosphaturia, dental anomalies, intracerebral calcifications and osteosclerosis.
