CDHR5 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul PCR Series BMP8B (bone morphogenetic protein 8b)

BMP8B (bone morphogenetic protein 8b) encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins

and is thought to play a role in the determination and maintenance of neuronal cell fates

Members of this family are ligands for the epidermal growth factor receptor and play a role in cell survival

It is subject to negative-feedback regulation by U-PA which cleaves it into an inactive form

CDHR5 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul PCR Series BMP8B (bone morphogenetic protein 8b)This gene is a novel mucin like gene that is a member of the cadherin superfamily. While encoding nonpolymorphic tandem repeats rich in proline, serine and threonine similar to mucin proteins, the gene also contains sequence encoding calcium binding motifs found in all cadherins. The role of the hybrid extracellular region and the specific function of this protein have not yet been determined. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding
