Binds and blocks the acitivity of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs).
Binds and blocks the acitivity of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). Mature mouse noggin shares 99% and 83% sequence identity with human and Xenopus noggin, respectively.
Physical form
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline.
Analysis Note
The biological activity is measured by its ability to inhibit recombinant human BMP-4 induced alkaline phosphatase activity in ATDC5 cells.
This commentary is a concise discussion of the interactions between bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and their binding proteins in bone and cartilage morphogenesis. BMPs are a family of growth and differentiation factors, and they act on mesenchymal cells to induce
