Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor Gene

Preferred Label : Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor Gene;

NCIt definition : Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor Genes encode Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptors, activated by Bone Morphogenetic Proteins, non-collagenous bone-growth regulatory factors synthesized as large precursor molecules that are cleaved by proteolytic enzymes and form an active homodimer or heterodimer of two related bone morphogenetic proteins that stimulate osteogenesis.
