Introduction | The bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are a family of secreted signaling molecules that can induce ectopic bone growth. Many BMPs are part of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGFB) superfamily. BMPs were originally identified by an ability of demineralized bone extract to induce endochondral osteogenesis in vivo in an extraskeletal site. Based on its expression early in embryogenesis, the BMP encoded by this gene has a proposed role in early development. In addition, the fact that this BMP is closely related to BMP5 and BMP7 has lead to speculation of possible bone inductive activity. |
Synonyms | Osteogenic Protein 1, BMP-7. |
Source | Chinese Hamster Ovarian Cells. |
Formulation | BMP-7 was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) sterile solution containing 1% sucrose, 1.2% mannitol, 20mM glycine, and 0.05% tween 20 pH-4. |
Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Bone Morphogenetic Protein-7 in 1ml sterile/ endotoxin free water. |
Stability | Lyophilized BMP-7 althoµgh stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution BMP 7 Human should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Purity | Greater than 97.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Biological Activity | Measured in alkaline phosphatase activity assay using MC3T3-E1 cells. The ED50 for this effect is <100ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 10,000IU/mg. |
Usage | NeoScientific's products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drµgs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals. |
