Bioss Inc.'s BMP5 Polyclonal Antibody, PE-Cy5 Conjugated is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Western Blot. The BMP5 Polyclonal Antibody, PE-Cy5 Conjugated was generated using BMP5, and Bone Morphogenetic Protein 5 as the antigen and it reacts with Homo Sapiens, and Human.
Description
This gene encodes a member of the bone morphogenetic protein family which is part of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily. The superfamily includes large families of growth and differentiation factors. Bone morphogenetic proteins were originally identified by an ability of demineralized bone extract to induce endochondral osteogenesis in vivo in an extraskeletal site. These proteins are synthesized as prepropeptides, cleaved, and then processed into dimeric proteins. This protein may act as an important signaling molecule within the trabecular meshwork and optic nerve head, and may play a potential role in glaucoma pathogenesis. This gene is differentially regulated during the formation of various tumors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
