Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

BMPR1B/ALK-6 protein is a type I member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor family of transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. BMPR1B/ALK-6 is the receptor for BMP-7/OP-1 and GDF-5, positively regulates chondrocyte differentiation through GDF-5 interaction. BMPR1B/ALK-6 also involves in SCUBE3/BMP-2/BMP-4 signals regulation, controlling growth, morphogenesis, and bone and teeth development. ALK-6/GDF-9/BMP-15 signals is essential in prolificacy of goat. The human BMPR1B/ALK-6 protein contains 502 amino acids and a transmembrane domain (127-148 a.a.). BMPRIB/ALK-6 Protein, Human (sf9, His-GST) is produced by HEK293 cells (R149-L502) with N-terminal His- and GST-tag.

Biological Activity

Description

BMPR1B/ALK-6 protein is a type I member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor family of transmembrane serine/threonine kinases[1]. BMPR1B/ALK-6 is the receptor for BMP-7/OP-1 and GDF-5, positively regulates chondrocyte differentiation through GDF-5 interaction[2][3]. BMPR1B/ALK-6 also involves in SCUBE3/BMP-2/BMP-4 signals regulation, controlling growth, morphogenesis, and bone and teeth development[4]. ALK-6/GDF-9/BMP-15 signals is essential in prolificacy of goat[5]. The human BMPR1B/ALK-6 protein contains 502 amino acids and a transmembrane domain (127-148 a.a.). BMPRIB/ALK-6 Protein, Human (sf9, His-GST) is produced by HEK293 cells (R149-L502) with N-terminal His- and GST-tag.

Background

BMPRIB/ALK-6, also known as CDw293 (cluster of differentiation w293), is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor family of transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. BMPs are involved in endochondral bone formation and embryogenesis, transducing signals through the formation of heteromeric complexes of 2 types BMP receptors: type I receptors (50-55 kD) and type II receptors (70-80 kD). Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind and activate SMAD transcriptional regulators[1]. ALK-6 is the receptor for BMP-7/OP-1 and GDF-5, positively regulates chondrocyte differentiation through GDF-5 interaction[2][3]. ALK-6 signaling is also controlled by SCUBE3, a BMP-2/BMP-4 co-receptor, recruits the BMP receptor complexes into raft microdomains, and positively modulates signaling possibly by augmenting the specific interactions between BMPs and BMP type I receptors[3]. ALK-6 involves in controlling growth, morphogenesis, and bone and teeth development through modulation of BMP signaling, is essential for chondrogenesis in vivo, while BMPR1A/ALK-3 and ALK-6 have overlapping functions during early chondrogenesis[4]. ALK-6/GDF-9/BMP-15 signals play a key role in prolificacy. ALK-6 and GDF-9 are widely expressed in 20 tissues with highest in ovary, while BMP-15 gene was expressed exclusively in ovary and pituitary[5]. The sequences of ALK-6 are highly conserved among different species, and the sequence of human shares a high similarity with rat (98.21%) and mouse (98.21%), respectively.
