Matrix Gla protein expression: a complex process involving the use of alternative promoters, multiple splicing events and microRNAs. FEBS International Workshop on New Developments in RNA Biology, September 1-4, Tavira, PortugalAUT: LCA00739http://hdl.handle.net/10400.1/4469Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is a secreted vitamin K-dependent protein (VKD) located in the extracellular matrix and capable of binding calcium through its -carboxyglutamate residues. Although identified in 1983, transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms regulating its expression remain unclear.engconference object
