Recombinant Human BMP2 protein

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 is one of the BMPs, some of which belong to the TGF-beta superfamily (BMP2-7). There are more than thirteen BMPs have been discovered nowadays and they are involved in inducing cartilage and bone formation. BMP-2 is expressed in a variety of tissues including lung, spleen, brain, liver, prostate ovary and small intestine. It is a potent osteoinductive cytokine and plays its role in association with osteoconductive carriers such as collagen and synthetic hydroxyapatite. As it shown to stimulate the production of bone, the recombinant human BMP-2 is available for orthopaedic usage and dentistry. The functional form of BMP-2 is a disulflde-linked homodimer and about 26 kDa The precursor of BMP-2 is 259 a.a., containing the 23 a.a. N-terminal signal sequence which will be cleaved by a furin-type protease to form the mature peptide.
