BMPR-II Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

BMP Type II Receptor (BMPR2) is a type II member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor family of transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. BMPR2 is highly expressed in the heart and liver, and involves in osteogenesis and cell differentiation, essential for embryogenesis, development, and adult tissue homeostasis. BMPR2 is associated with tubulin stability, the inhibition of BMPR2 destabilizes the microtubules promoting cell death of cancer cells that involves the activation of the lysosomes. Human BMPR2 protein contains 1038 amino acids and a transmembrane domain (151-171 a.a.). BMPR-II Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the extracellular part of the complete BMPR2 protein, produced by HEK293 cells (S27-I151) with C-terminal 6*His-tag.
