Recombinant Human BMP-4 is a bioactive protein intended for use in cell culture applications. BMP-4 is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein family which is part of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) superfamily. The TGF-β superfamily includes many 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 at an extraskeletal site. This particular family member plays an important role in the onset of endochondral bone formation in humans. Recombinant Human BMP-4 is one of the many GIBCO® recombinant bioactive proteins available from Life Technologies. This is the 10 microgram size.
High purity—minimal interference from other proteins or contaminants
High biological activity—more results with less protein
Proven compatibility—GIBCO® proteins bioassayed with GIBCO® media
High Purity 查看更多Recombinant Bioactive
Protein Recombinant BMP-4 is one of more than 250 GIBCO® recombinant proteins available from Life Technologies. To help ensure GIBCO®growth factors are of the highest quality, each protein is analyzed for purity along with structural homogeneity to help ensure a biologically active protein.
High Biological Activity
In-house activity testing includes a variety of cell proliferation, cytotaxis, calcium flux, secondary cytokine up-regulation, induction of surface antigen expression, and protease assays. Recombinant BMP-4 specific activity is determined by the dose dependent induction of alkaline phosphatase production in the ATDC-5 cell line (Mouse chondrogenic cell line).
Proven Compatibility with GIBCO® Media
GIBCO® proteins are bioassayed with GIBCO® media. Since 1962 GIBCO® has been a consistent provider of high quality media, reagents, and sera for reliable cell culture. We also offer a selection of growth factors for use in cell therapy applications through our GIBCO® Cell Therapy Systems (CTS™) product line.
