The following Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of bone morphogenetic protein 4 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the BMP4 gene. This protein is reported to be a growth factor of the TGF-beta superfamily that plays essential roles in many developmental processes, including neurogenesis, vascular development, angiogenesis and osteogenesis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 408 residues, a mass of 46.6 kDa, and is a member of the TGF-beta protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in the lung and lower levels seen in the kidney. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Microphthalmia. This protein may also be known as BMP2B1, MCOPS6, OFC11, ZYME, bone morphogenetic protein 2B, and BMP2B.
The detection range for different bone morphogenetic protein 4 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.3 ng/L and as high as 400 ng/mL.
