Bone morphogenetic protein receptor type II ; BMP type II receptor ; PPH1
Categories
Elisa
Function
On ligand binding, forms a receptor complex consisting of two type II and two type I transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind and activate SMAD transcriptional regulators. Binds to BMP-7, BMP-2 and, less efficiently, BMP-4. Binding is weak but enhanced by the presence of type I receptors for BMPs.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Human Bone morphogenetic protein receptor type-2
