Homologous radioimmunoassay of human osteocalcin.
Osteocalcin or bone gamma-glutamic acid-containing protein (GLA protein) was isolated from human bone and used to develop a homologous radioimmunoassay of human osteocalcin. The effect of age on serum osteocalcin was studied in 380 normal children and adolescents and 330 normal adults. The mean (+/- SD) values in adults were higher in men [25 +/- 5 micrograms/L (4.3 +/- 0.8 nmol/L)] than in pre...
متن کاملCarboxylation-dependent conformational changes of human osteocalcin.
Osteocalcin (OCN) is a small noncollagenous protein mainly produced by osteoblasts and is highly represented in bones of most vertebrates. Human OCN contains up to three gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla-OCN) residues at positions 17, 21 and 24 which are thought to increase calcium binding strength, improving mechanical properties of the bone matrix. Recent studies revealed that OCN exerts also i...

متن کاملSandwich enzyme immunoassay of osteocalcin in serum with use of an antibody against human osteocalcin.
We have developed and thoroughly validated a solid-phase sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on microtiter plates for osteocalcin in human serum with use of an antibody raised against human osteocalcin. We used a monoclonal antibody against bovine osteocalcin as the capture antibody; the second antibody was a polyclonal antibody against human osteocalcin. The amount of bound seco...
