Growth factor of the TGF-beta superfamily that plays essential roles in many developmental processes, including cartilage and bone formation or neurogenesis.Initiates the canonical BMP signaling cascade by associating with type I receptor BMPR1A and type II receptor BMPR2.In turn, BMPR1A propagates signal by phosphorylating SMAD1/5/8 that travel to the nucleus and act as activators and repressors of transcription of target genes.Can also signal through non-canonical pathway such as MAPK p38 signaling cascade to promote chondrogenic differentiation.
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
