UniProtKB description: The carboxylated form is one of the main organic components of the bone matrix, which constitutes 1-2% of the total bone protein (PubMed:14586470). It acts as a negative regulator of bone formation and is required to limit bone formation without impairing bone resorption or mineralization (By similarity). The carboxylated form binds strongly to apatite and calcium (By similarity).
