Osteocalcin is the most abundant non-collagenous protein found in the bone.
While fully-carboxylated osteocalcin has a high affinity for the extracellular matrix of the bone; decreases in pH, caused by the process of bone resorption, result in decarboxylation of this protein.
This generates both partially decarboxylated (undercarboxylated) and fully decarboxylated (uncarboxylated) osteocalcin molecules which are released into the circulation due to decreased affinity for the extracellular matrix.
Fully carboxylated osteocalcin requires high calcium concentrations for proper protein folding; however, under/uncarboxylated osteocalcin has no calcium requirement to maintain its structure within the blood.
