Abstract excerpt
Osteopontin (OP) is a highly phosphorylated bone matrix protein and contains the RGD cell-binding motif, which mediates cell adhesion through integrin receptors that include alpha(v)beta3. Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is a factor-independent serine/threonine kinase, which may be the predominant physiolo...
