Animal-Free BMP-7 Protein, Human (His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

BMP-7 protein is an important member of the TGF-β superfamily and is critical in embryogenesis, hematopoiesis, neurogenesis and bone morphogenesis. It activates canonical BMP signaling through ACVR1 and ACVR2A, phosphorylates and activates ACVR1, which in turn phosphorylates SMAD1/5/8 for target gene transcriptional regulation. Animal-Free BMP-7 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived animal-FreeBMP-7 protein, expressed by E. coli , with C-His labeled tag. This product is for cell culture use only.

Description

BMP-7 protein is an important member of the TGF-β superfamily and is critical in embryogenesis, hematopoiesis, neurogenesis and bone morphogenesis. It activates canonical BMP signaling through ACVR1 and ACVR2A, phosphorylates and activates ACVR1, which in turn phosphorylates SMAD1/5/8 for target gene transcriptional regulation. Animal-Free BMP-7 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived animal-FreeBMP-7 protein, expressed by E. coli , with C-His labeled tag. This product is for cell culture use only.

Background

BMP-7 Protein, a vital member of the TGF-beta superfamily, plays a crucial role in various biological processes, encompassing embryogenesis, hematopoiesis, neurogenesis, and skeletal morphogenesis. It initiates the canonical BMP signaling cascade by binding to the type I receptor ACVR1 and the type II receptor ACVR2A, leading to the phosphorylation and activation of ACVR1. Subsequently, ACVR1 phosphorylates SMAD1/5/8, which modulate target gene transcription as activators and repressors in the nucleus. In specific functions, such as growth cone collapse in developing spinal neurons and monocyte chemotaxis, BMP-7 utilizes BMPR2 as an additional type II receptor. Beyond canonical pathways, BMP-7 signals through non-canonical routes, such as the P38 MAP kinase signaling cascade, to promote brown adipocyte differentiation by activating target genes, including members of the SOX family of transcription factors. BMP-7 further regulates the expression of HAMP, with this process being restrained by its interaction with ERFE. This homodimeric protein forms disulfide-linked complexes and interacts with various proteins, including SOSTDC1, TWSG1, FBN1, FBN2, ACVR1, ACVR2A, NOG, SCUBE3, and ERFE, each contributing to its diverse functional repertoire.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM sodium citrate, 0.2 M NaCl, pH 3.5, trehalose.

Endotoxin Level

<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is recommended to reconstitute to a concentration of 100-200 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
