		Technical Data
B2553-52A	BMP15, ID (Bone Morphogenetic Protein 15, BMP-15, Growth/Differentiation Factor 9B, GDF-9B, GDF9B)

Description:
Bmp15 is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein family which is part of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily. The transforming growth factor-beta superfamily includes large families of growth and differentiation factors. It is thought that Bmp15 may be involved in oocyte maturation and follicular development as a homodimer or by forming heterodimers with a related protein, Gdf9.

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:1,000
Western Blot: 1:50-1:100
Immunohistochemistry: 1:10-1:50
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
