epitope corresponding to amino acids 687-986 mapping at the C-terminus of BMP-1 of human origin
Modification Notes
Bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) are members of the TGF∫ superfamily (1,2). BMPs are involved in the induction of cartilage and bone formation (3). In vivo studies have shown that BMP-2 (also designated BMP-2A) and BMP-3 can independently induce cartilage formation (3). BMP-1 is a metalloprotease that plays important roles in regulating the deposition of fibrous extracellular matrix in vertebrates, including provision of the procollagen C-proteinase activity that processes the major fibrillar collagens I-III (3). Smad3 association with the TGF∫ receptor complex and Smad1 translocation to the nucleus are observed after the addition of BMP-4 (also designated BMP-2B), suggesting that BMP-4 may play a role in activation of the Smad pathway (4,5). BMP-5, BMP-6 and BMP-7 all share high sequence homology with BMP-2, indicating that they each may be able to induce cartilage formation (6,7). BMP-8 (also designated OP-2) is thought to be involved in early development, as detectable expression has not been found in adult organs (8). Human BMP-1 splice variants occur between residues 703 and 986 and include: BMP1-1, BMP1-4, BMP1-5, BMP1-6, BMP1-7 (4,10).
