- Format
- Lyophilized
- Reconstitution
- The lyophilized BMP-2 is best soluble in 50 mM acetic acid at a concentration of 0.1 mg/mL but should be also soluble in most aqueous buffers when the pH is below 6.0.
- Buffer
- 50 mM acetic acid
- Handling Advice
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- Storage
- -20 °C/-80 °C
- Storage Comment
- Lyophilized samples are stable for greater than six months at -20 °C to -70 °C. Reconstituted BMP-2 should be stored in working aliquots at -20 °C.
- Expiry Date

- Background
-
Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) is a disulfide-bonded homodimeric protein with an apparent molecular weight of 26 kDa. BMP-2 regulates similarly to its nearest homologue BMP-4 diverse fundamental processes during embryonic development: BMP-2 and other BMP proteins have great potential for medical therapeutic applications, in particular because they allow or at least accelerate the ossification of extensive bone lesions. The amino acid sequence of recombinant human BMP-2 starts with MQAKHKQ (position 283) containing the Met from the E. coli expression vector. BMP-2 is a heparin binding protein.
