Recombinant BMP-2 is a bioactive protein intended for use in cell culture applications. BMP-2 is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein family which is part of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily. The superfamily includes large families of growth and differentiation factors. Bone morphogenetic proteins were originally identified by an ability of demineralized bone extract to induce endochondral osteogenesis in vivo in an extraskeletal site. BMP-2 acts as a disulfide-linked homodimer and induces bone and cartilage formation.
