Definitions |
A TGF-beta-like cystine-knot cytokine related to the transforming growth factor-beta, anti-Muellerian hormone, and activin/inhibin protein families, which are all involved in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. These are produced as dimeric precursors and undergo post-translational processing for activation, requiring cleavage to release bioactive the C-terminal peptide. BMP is involved in body patterning and morphogenesis. BMP signals are transmitted through specific type 2 and type 1 receptors. Category=family. |
