| Genome | |
| Summary | This gene encodes one of the most abundant non-collagenous proteins in bone tissue that is localized to the mineralized matrix of bone. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing and post-translational gamma carboxylation to generate a mature, calcium-binding protein. Mice lacking the encoded protein develop abnormalities of bone remodelling. This gene is located adjacent to two other osteocalcin-related genes on chromosome 3.
