Function

Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) are growth factors which can induce formation of bone and cartllage'[1]. Over 20 BMPs are known at present. BMP is part of the Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) family of proteins.

  • BMP-1 cleaves the C-propeptides of type I pro collagen during the synthesis of extracellular collagen fibrils[2].
  • BMP-2 has important role in embryogenesis, bone formation and homeostasis[3].
  • BMP-3 is a major component in osteogenin[4].

For details on BMP-7 see Student Projects for UMass Chemistry 423 Spring 2012-4. See also

Relevance

Recombinant BMP is used in oral surgery and spinal fusion.

Disease

BMP-7 is involved in chronic kidney disease[5].
