Active Recombinant Zebrafish BMP4 Protein

• Cat.No.: BMP4-14Z
• Product Overview: Recombinant Zebrafish BMP4 Protein was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: Predicted to enable BMP receptor binding activity and cytokine activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; determination of bilateral symmetry; and embryonic morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; fin; head; inner ear; and mesoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including CAKUT (multiple); cleft lip; orofacial cleft 11; ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of spine; and otosclerosis. Orthologous to human BMP4 (bone morphogenetic protein 4).
• Source: E. coli
• Species: Zebrafish
• Form: Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in Acetonitrile and TFA with BSA as a carrier protein.
• Bio-activity: Measured by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC5 mouse chondrogenic cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.2-1 µg/mL.
• Molecular Mass: 12.9 kDa
