Application Data:
Bmp7 Antibody (N-term)

Western blot analysis of Bmp7 (arrow) using rabbit polyclonal Bmp7 Antibody (N-term) (Cat.#AP1718a). 293 cell lysates (2 ug/lane) either nontransfected (Lane 1) or transiently transfected with the Bmp7 gene (Lane 2) (Origene Technologies).

Bmp7 Antibody (N-term)

(LEFT)Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. BC = breast carcinoma; HC = hepatocarcinoma. (RIGHT)Immunofluorescence analysis of Bmp7 Antibody (N-term) (Cat.#AP1718a) in HeLa cells. 0.025 mg/ml primary antibody was followed by Alexa-Fluor-546-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit lgG (H+L). Alexa-Fluor-546 emits orange fluorescence. Blue counterstaining is DAPI.

Background:
The bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are a family of secreted signaling molecules that can induce ectopic bone growth. Many BMPs are part of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGFB) superfamily. BMPs were originally identified by an ability of demineralized bone extract to induce endochondral osteogenesis in vivo in an extraskeletal site. Based on its expression early in embryogenesis, BMP7 has a proposed role in early development. In addition, the fact that BMP7 is closely related to BMP5 and BMP6 has lead to speculation of possible bone inductive activity.
