Purity/Purification
> 95% by SDS-PAGE & silver stain
Form/Format
Lyophilized
Sequence

Sequence Length
115
Endotoxin Level
< 0.1ng per ug of BMP-2
Biological Activity
Measured by the ability of BMP-2 to induce alkaline phosphatase production by C2C12 myogenic cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.3-0.8 ug/ml.
Reconstitution
The lyophilized BMP-2 is best soluble in 50 mM acetic acid at a concentration of 0.1mg/ml but should be also soluble in most aqueous buffers when the pH is below 6.0.
Preparation and Storage
Lyophilized samples are stable for greater than six months at -20 degree C to -70 degree C. Reconstituted BMP-2 should be stored in working aliquots at -20 degree C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles!
Related Product Information for BMP-2 active protein
Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) is a disulfide-bonded homodimeric protein with an apparent molecular weight of 26 kDa. BMP-2 regulates similarly to its nearest homologue BMP-4 diverse fundamental processes during embryonic development: BMP-2 and other BMP proteins have great potential for medical therapeutic applications, in particular because they allow or at least accelerate the ossification of extensive bone lesions. The amino acid sequence of recombinant human BMP-2 starts with MQAKHKQ (position 283) containing the Met from the E. coli expression vector. BMP-2 is a heparin binding protein.

Product Notes
The BMP-2 bmp2 (Catalog #AAA79170) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Human BMP-2 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: MQAKHKQRKR LKSSCKRHPL YVDFSDVGWN DWIVAPPGYH AFYCHGECPF PLADHLNSTN HAIVQTLVNS VNSKIPKACC VPTELSAISM LYLDENEKVV LKNYQDMVVE GCGCR. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "BMP-2, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
