About Bmpr2

Chromosome 1: 59,802,559-59,918,173 forward strand.GRCm39:CM000994.3

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 265 orthologues, 11 paralogues and is associated with 44 phenotypes. Broad expression in lung adult (RPKM 22.1), frontal lobe adult (RPKM 8.3) and 19 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a serine/threonine kinase that functions as a receptor for bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). The encoded protein is a type II receptor that binds extracellular BMPs and forms a complex of two type II and two type I receptors at the cell membrane. This complex signals downstream to activate SMAD transcriptional regulators. This signaling is important during embryonic development. Mutations in this gene can cause pulmonary hypertension.
