Melatonin regulates human bone sialoprotein gene transcription.

Melatonin is produced by the pineal gland and regulates various physiological processes including osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a mineralized connective tissue-specific protein expressed in the early stage of cementum and bone mineralization. To elucidate the effects of melatonin on human BSP gene expression, we utilized human Saos2 osteoblast-like ce...

An inverted TATA box directs downstream transcription of the bone sialoprotein gene.

The orientation of the TATA box is thought to direct downstream transcription of eukaryotic genes by RNA polymerase II. However, the putative TATA box in the promoter of the bone sialoprotein (BSP) gene, which codes for a tissue-specific and developmentally regulated bone matrix protein, is inverted (5'-TTTATA-3') relative to the consensus TATA box sequence (5'-TATAAA-3') and is overlapped by a...

Bone sialoprotein.

The search for a protein nucleator of hydroxyapatite crystal formation has been a focus for the isolation and characterization of the major non-collagenous proteins in bone. Of the proteins characterized to date, bone sialoprotein (BSP) has emerged as the only bona fide candidate for nucleation. BSP is a highly glycosylated and sulphated phosphoprotein that is found almost exclusively in minera...

Calcium hydroxide regulates bone sialoprotein gene transcription in human osteoblast-like Saos2 cells.

Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a mineralized tissue-specific protein expressed in differentiated osteoblasts that appears to function in the initial mineralization of bone. Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)(2)) is a basic salt that has been widely used for a variety of applications in dentistry, due to its antimicrobial effects and its capability of inducing hard tissue formation. However, details of the m...

Human Bone Sialoprotein

A cDNA encoding the human bone sialoprotein was isolated from a X Zap expression library (made from cultured human bone cell poly(A)+ RNA) using radiolabeled rat bone sialoprotein cDNA (Oldberg, A., and Heinegard, D. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 1943019432) as a probe. A 5’ 1-kilobase EcoRI fragment of the purified 3-kilobase clone was sequenced and found to contain the entire protein-encoding re...
