Target/Specificity:
This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the N-terminal region of human BMPR2.
Other Names:
Bone morphogenetic protein receptor type-2; Bone morphogenetic protein receptor type II; BMP type II receptor; BMPR-II; PPH1
Application Data:
BMPR2 Antibody (N-term)

Western blot analysis of anti-BMPR2 Pab (Cat. #ap2006a) in mouse heart tissue lysate. BMPR2 (arrow) was detected using purified Pab. Secondary HRP-anti-rabbit was used for signal visualization with chemiluminescence.

BMPR2 Antibody (N-term)

Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human hepatocarcinoma tissue reacted with BMPR2 antibody (N-term), 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.

Background:
BMPR2 is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor family of transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. The ligands of this receptor are BMPs, which are members of the TGF-beta superfamily. BMPs are involved in endochondral bone formation and embryogenesis. These proteins transduce their signals through the formation of heteromeric complexes of 2 different types of serine (threonine) kinase receptors: type I receptors of about 50-55 kD and type II receptors of about 70-80 kD. Type II receptors bind ligands in the absence of type I receptors, but they require their respective type I receptors for signaling, whereas type I receptors require their respective type II receptors for ligand binding. Mutations in BMPR2 have been associated with primary pulmonary hypertension.
