BMP1 bone morphogenetic protein 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 649)

Symbol: BMP1

Full name: bone morphogenetic protein 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: OI13; PCOLC; PCP; PCP2; TLD

Summary: This gene encodes a protein that is capable of inducing formation of cartilage in vivo. Although other bone morphogenetic proteins are members of the TGF-beta superfamily, this gene encodes a protein that is not closely related to other known growth factors. This gene is expressed as alternatively spliced variants that share an N-terminal protease domain but differ in their C-terminal region. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]
