Description |
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) constitute a subfamily within the TGF-beta superfamily of structurally related signaling proteins. Members of this superfamily are widely distributed throughout the body and are involved in diverse physiological processes during both pre- and postnatal life. Like BMP-7, BMP-4 is involved in the development and maintenance of bone and cartilage. Reduced expression of BMP-4 is associated with a number of bone diseases, including the heritable disorder Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva. E.coli derived BMP-4 is a fully active homodimeric protein consisting of two 106 amino acid subunits which correspond to amino acids 303-408 of the full length BMP-4 precursor. |

Endotoxin Level |
Endotoxin level is <, 0.1 ng/ug of protein (<, 1EU/ug). |
Biological Activity |
Determined by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC-5 cells. The expected ED 50 for this effect is 5-10 ng/ml. |
Protein Content |
Verified by UV Spectroscopy and/or SDS-PAGE gel. |
Authenticity |
Verified by N-terminal and Mass Spectrometry analyses (when applicable). |
