Fetuin-B / FETUB Antibody Background

Fetuin-B, also known as Fetuin-like protein IRL685 and FETUB, is a secreted protein which belongs to thefetuin family. Fetuin-B / FETUB contains twocystatin domains. Fetuin-B is a member of the fetuin family, part of the cystatin superfamily of cysteine protease inhibitors. Fetuins have been implicated in several diverse functions, including osteogenesis and bone resorption, regulation of the insulin and hepatocyte growth factor receptors, and response to systemic inflammation. Fetuin-A has been identified as a major protein during fetal life and is also involved in important functions such as inhibition of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity, protease inhibitory activities and development-associated regulation of calcium metabolism and osteogenesis. Fetuin-A is a key partner in the recovery phase of an acute inflammatory response. Fetuin-B / FETUB is found at least in human and rodents. It is unambiguously a paralogue of Fetuin-A. Fetuin-A and Fetuin-B exhibit significant differences at the amino acid sequence level, notably including variations with respect to the archetypal fetuin-specific signature.
