Price299 €
SourceInsect cells
LabelHis-Tag
Formulationlyophilized
Purity Confirmation> 90% by SDS-PAGE
Length [aa]135
Molecular Weight23 kDa
Biological ActivityMeasured by its ability to inhibit recombinant human BMP-2 induced alkaline phosphatase production by C2C12 myogenic cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 1-5 µg/ml in the presence of 500 ng/ml of recombinant human BMP-2.
Species ReactivityHuman
BufferPBS
ReconstitutionThe lyophilized sBMPR-1A is soluble in water and most aqueous buffers and should be reconstituted in PBS or medium to a concentration not lower than 50µg/ml.
Stability and StorageLyophilized samples are stable for greater than six months at -20°C to -70°C. Reconstituted sBMPR-1A should be stored in working aliquots at -20°C.
SynonymsALK3; SKR5; CD292; ACVRLK3; 10q23del; bone morphogenetic protein receptor, type IA
DescriptionThe extracellular domain of human BMPR-IA was fused with a carboxy-terminal 6X histidine-tag. The monomeric glycoprotein was expressed in baculovirus infected insect cells. Cellular responses to bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have been shown to be mediated by the formation of hetero-oligomeric complexes of the type I and type II serine/threonine kinase receptors. BMP receptor 1A (BMPR-1A), also known as activin receptor-like kinase (ALK)-3, is a one of seven known type I serine/threonine kinases that are required for the signal transduction of TGF-b family cytokines. In contrast to the TGF-b receptor system in which the type I receptor does not bind TGF-b in the absence of the type II receptor, type I receptors involved in BMP signaling (including BMPR-IA, BMPR-IB/ALK-6, and ActR-I/ALK-2) can independently bind the various BMP family proteins in the absence of type II receptors. Recombinant soluble BMPR-IA binds BMP-2 and -4 with high-affinity in solution and is a potent BMP-2/4 antagonist in vitro. BMPR-IA is ubiquitously expressed during embryogenesis. In adult tissues, BMPR-IA mRNA is also widely distributed; with the highest expression levels found in skeletal muscle. The extracellular domain of BMPR-IA shares little amino acid sequence identity with the other mammalian ALK type I receptor kinases, but the cysteine residues are conserved. Human and mouse BMPR-IA are highly conserved and share 98% sequence identity.
