Gene Information

human ... GDF2(2658)

General description

The growth differentiation factor 2 (GDF2) gene encodes for bone morphogenic protein 9 (BMP9). GDF2, also known as BMP9, belongs to the BMP family. The GDF2 gene is mapped on the human chromosome at 10q11.22. GDF2/BMP9 protein regulates angiogenesis, modulating tumorigenesis, inhibiting hepatic glucose production, and maintaining basal forebrain cholinergic neurons. It is implicated in the pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Mutations in the GDF2 gene are associated with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), an autosomal dominant vascular disorder. The antibody pair provided in this kit recognizes human growth/differentiation factor 2.

Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) (or GDF2) was originally identified from fetal mouse liver cDNA libraries. Emerging evidence indicates BMP9 exerts diverse and pleiotropic functions during postnatal development and in maintaining tissue homeostasis. However, the expression landscape of BMP9 signaling
