Name :
Recombinant Human BMP4 Protein (E399D)

Biological Activity :

Background :
BMP4 (bone morphogenetic protein-4)-directed differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (ESCd). Autophagy is a conserved catabolic process with complicated roles in tumor development. Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4), a member of the transforming growth factor (TGF-β) family of regulatory proteins, plays a crucial role in human malignancies. BMP4 treatment promoted HCC cells proliferation and induced autophagy. Mechanistic study revealed that the induction of autophagy by BMP4 was mediated through activating the JNK1/Bcl2 pathway. And the JNK1 inhibitor and knockdown of JNK1 could attenuate autophagy induced by BMP4 and eliminated BMP4-promoted HCC cells growth. BMP4 promoted HCC proliferation by autophagy activation through JNK1/Bcl-2 signaling.

Biological Activity :
Measured by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by MC3T3-E1 mouse osteoblastic cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.08-0.4ug/mL.

Protein Construction :
A DNA sequence encoding the human BMP4 (P12644) (Ser293-Arg408, E399D) was expressed with an N-terminal Met.

Buffer Solution :
Lyophilized from sterile 30% Acetonitrile, 1/1000 TFA.Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % – 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hardcopy of datasheet.

Shipping :
In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature.Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise.

Redissolution :
A hardcopy of datasheet with reconstitution instructions is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.
