Abstract excerpt
The specificity of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) to their putative heteromeric receptor complexes in vivo is largely unclear. Closely related BMPs may use the same or different receptor complexes for signaling in a time- and space-dependent manner during development and differentiation. We have shown that Bmp7 expression in epididymal epithelium is developmentally regulated. Here, we further show that Bmp7...
