Background Descriptions | A mineralized connective tissue known as cementum covers the root surfaces of teeth and is required for maturation of periodontal tissue. CEMP1 (cementum protein 1), also designated CP23 or cementoblastoma-derived protein 1, is a 247 amino acid nuclear and cytoplasmic protein that is thought to regulate cementoblast behavior. Expressed specifically in periodontal ligament and cementum, CEMP1 may play a role in differentiation and mineralization of non-osteogenic cells. The gene encoding CEMP1 maps to human chromosome 6, which contains 170 million base pairs and comprises nearly 6% of the human genome. Deletion of a portion of the q arm of chromosome 6 is associated with early onset intestinal cancer, suggesting the presence of a cancer susceptibility locus. Additionally, Porphyria cutanea tarda, Parkinson's disease, Stickler syndrome and a susceptibility to bipolar disorder are all associated with genes that map to chromosome 6. |

Function | May play a role in development of the periodontium which surrounds and supports the teeth by promoting the differentiation of multi-potent cells from the periodontal ligament into cementoblasts to form the cementum (PubMed:17509525, PubMed:21465469, PubMed:21929512). Binds hydroxyapatite and may promote the biomineralization of the cementum (PubMed:19393626). Also promotes cell proliferation (PubMed:17509525, PubMed:21929512, PubMed:26011628). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus Note=Localizes to the nucleus of some cementoblasts |
Tissue Location | Expressed by cementoblasts, a subpopulation of periodontal ligament cells and cells located around vessels in periodontium (at protein level). |
