DesignNote |
Growth/differentiation factor 5 is predominantly expressed in long bones during human embryonic development. The active growth factor is released from the precursor following proteolytic cleavage at arginine at amino acid position 381 which is the final amino acid in a polybasic proteolytic processing site.
