FAM20C (Family with sequence similarity 20, member C) is a member of FAM20 protein family. It is distributed in several mammalian cell lines. During hematopoietic differentiation, it is expressed in hematopoietic cells.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human FAM20C
Application
Anti-FAM20C (AB2) 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 ability to phosphorylate S-x-E/pS motifs on proteins present 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.

Family with sequence similarity 20‑member C (FAM20C), a recently characterized Golgi kinase, performs numerous biological functions by phosphorylating more than 100 secreted proteins. However, the role of FAM20C in the salivary glands remains undefined. The present study demonstrated that FAM20C is mainly
Exome sequencing reveals FAM20c mutations associated with fibroblast growth factor 23-related hypophosphatemia, dental anomalies, and ectopic calcification.
The existence of extracellular phosphoproteins has been acknowledged for over a century. However, research in this area has been undeveloped largely because the kinases that phosphorylate secreted proteins have escaped identification. Fam20C is a kinase that phosphorylates S-x-E/pS motifs on
Hypophosphatemic osteomalacia and bone sclerosis caused by a novel homozygous mutation of the FAM20C gene in an elderly man with a mild variant of Raine syndrome.
Hematopoiesis is a complex developmental process controlled by a large number of factors that regulate stem cell renewal, lineage commitment and differentiation. Secreted proteins, including the hematopoietic growth factors, play critical roles in these processes and have important biological and
