Background
This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer, which plays a role in bone and cartilage development. Duplication of a regulatory region downstream of this gene causes a form of brachydactyly characterized by a malformed index finger and second toe in human patients.,BDA2,BMP2A,BMP2,Cancer,Signal Transduction,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Cytoskeleton,Extracellular Matrix,Bone,Growth factor,TGF-b-Smad Signaling Pathway,Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway,ESC Pluripotency and Differentiation,Immunology & Inflammation,Cytokines,NF-kB Signaling Pathway,Stem Cells,Neural Stem Cells,Cardiovascular,Angiogenesis,Ligand,BMP2
