FJ (1) Fam20C appears to be the Golgi casein kinase that is involved in phosphorylating secretory pathway proteins within S-x-E motifs. Fam20C can phosphorylate the caseins and several secreted proteins which are implicated in biomineralization, such as the small integrin-binding ligand and N-linked glycoproteins (SIBLINGs) (1). Study has revealed that FAM20C plays a direct role in facilitating osteoblast differentiation (2). Mutations in Fam20C usually cause an osteosclerotic bone dysplasia in humans known as Raine syndrome (1,3).
