General description
Asporin, periodontal ligament-associated protein 1 (PLAP1), is a member of the family of small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family. Asporin is present in the cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) where it plays a role in collagen mineralization. Asporin is involved in the mineralizaion of human dental pulp stem cells and predentin to dentin. Asporin inhibits bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2)-induced cytodifferentiation of periodontal ligament (PDL) cells and has been implicated in osteoarthritis.
The previously assigned protein identifier Q5TBF3 has been merged into Q9BXN1. Full details can be found on the UniProt database.

Specificity
Anti- PLAP1 (AB3) antibody reacts with canine, mouse, chicken, human, rat, and bovine Asporin (periodontal ligament-associated protein 1) proteins.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human ASPN
Application
Anti- PLAP1 (AB3) antibody is used to tag asporin proteins for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in cells and tissues by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to study the role of asporin in cartilage mineralization and cytodifferentiation of cells such as periodontal ligament (PDL) cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
ASPN belongs to a family of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins associated with the cartilage matrix. The name asporin reflects the unique aspartate-rich N terminus and the overall similarity to decorin.ASPN belongs to a family of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins associated with the cartilage matrix. The name asporin reflects the unique aspartate-rich N terminus and the overall similarity to decorin (MIM 125255) (Lorenzo et al., 2001).[supplied by OMIM].
