BMP7 null mutation in mice: developmental defects in skeleton, kidney, and eye.

Abstract excerpt

While generating bcl2 alpha transgenic mice, we found some F2 offspring of one of the transgenic lines which were very small and had closed eyes at the time of weaning. These pups died within 1 month after birth. In order to determine the molecular basis of this phenotype, we screened a genomic library of the above transgenic line with a transgene-specific probe and found that the Bmp7 gene, a member of the TGF...
