General description

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 6 (BMP-6), also known as Vgr-1, is one of at least 15 structurally and functionally related BMPs which are members of the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) superfamily. TGF-β family members are key modulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, matrix synthesis, and apoptosis. As implied by their name, BMPs initiate, promote, and regulate the development, growth and remodeling of bone and cartilage. In addition to this role, BMPs are also involved in prenatal development and postnatal growth, remodeling and maintenance of a variety of other tissues and organs. Increasing evidence indicates that BMP-Smad signaling has a tumor suppressing activity and that BMPs can inhibit tumor growth. BMP-6 is abnormally expressed in breast cancer cell lines; however, its function in promoting breast cancer development is unknown. Recombinant human BMP-6 is a 26.2 kDa homodimeric glycoprotein consisting of two 117 amino acid subunits, which correspond to amino acid residues 397 to 513 of the full-length BMP-6 precursor.

Questions

  1. How to reconstitute the BMP-6, Human Recombinant GF168?

    1 answer
    1. This product may be reconstituted in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL, do not vortex. For long-term storage, we recommend that the stock solution be further diluted in a buffer containing 0.1% BSA or a similar carrier protein. Store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C, and avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
