| Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4) is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein family which belongs to the TGF- superfamily. This protein is a vital regulatory molecule that functions throughout bone and cartilage development, specifically tooth development, limb formation, bone induction, and fracture repair. In human embryonic development, BMP- 4 is required for the early differentiation of the embryo and establishing of a dorsal-ventral axis. And it is overexpressed in patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva. Recombinant BMP-4 was expressed as insoluble protein aggregate in E. coli and purified by conventional chromatography, after refolding of the isolated inclusion bodies in a renaturation buffer. | | | Catalog # | B2553-21A | | Endotoxin Level | 1.0 EU per 1 ug of protein (determined by LAL method)15% SDS-PAGE (3ug) | | Molecular Weight | 13.2kD (117 aa) | | AA Sequences | MSPKHHSQRA RKKNKNCRRH SLYVDFSDVG WNDWIVAPPG YQAFYCHGDC PFPLADHLNS TNHAIVQTLV NSVNSSIPKA CCVPTELSAI | | SMLYLDEYDK VVLKNYQEMV VEGCGCR | | Storage and Stability | For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C.
