Background:

Bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) are members of the TGFβ superfamily. BMPs are involved in the induction of cartilage and bone formation.BMP-8 is thought to be involved in early development, as detectable expression has not been found in adult organs. Two BMP-8 proteins exist, namely BMP-8A and BMP-8B (also designated OP-2), and are encoded by two distinct genes.

Specificity:

BMP-8 (E90) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of BMP-8A and BMP-8B protein.

Alternative names:

Bone morphogenetic protein 8B; BMP-8; BMP-8B; Osteogenic protein 2; OP-2; BMP8B; BMP8; Bone morphogenetic protein 8A; BMP-8A; BMP8A
