Recombinant Human UCMA Protein

• Background:

  C10orf49 is a secreted protein which encoded by the UCMA gene. It is a member of the UCMA family. C10orf49 is predominantly expressed in resting chondrocytes. It may be involved in the negative control of osteogenic differentiation of osteochondrogenic precursor cells in peripheral zones of fetal cartilage and at the cartilage-bone interface.
