Background: Nephronectin

Nephronectin, also named POEM (preosteoblast EGF repeat protein with MAM domain) is a 70-90 kDa extracellular matrix protein that is a ligand for integrin alpha 8 beta 1 (1, 2). The 565 amino acid (aa) human Nephronectin contains a 19 aa signal sequence, a matrilin-type vWA domain, three calcium-binding EGF-like domains, a potential N-linked glycosylation site, a pro/ser/thr-rich mucin-like region, an RGD integrin binding motif, and a MAM domain (1, 3, 4). These features are often present in matrix proteins that, like Nephronectin, mediate cell adhesion and spreading (1, 2, 5). Six human Nephronectin isoforms were identified with alternative splicing. Mature human Nephronectin shows 88% aa identity with both mouse and rat Nephronectin. It is most highly expressed in developing endocrine organs such as parathyroid, thyroid, hypophysis and pineal organ, and around developing bone, teeth, and muscle (1, 2). Pre-osteoblast cells produce Nephronectin, but down-regulate it as they differentiate (1). It is also expressed in the Wolffian duct and ureteric bud basement membranes in the developing kidney, where it is colocalized, and forms an in-vivo complex with integrin alpha 8 beta 1 (2). Since deletion of integrin alpha 8 beta 1 results in renal agenesis, Nephronectin has been proposed to be a critical integrin alpha 8 beta 1 ligand during Nephrogenesis (2, 6).
