The Bone Morphogenetic Protein 15 Gene Is X-Linked and Expressed in Oocytes

1998-12-01

Abstract excerpt

We have taken advantage of the sequence relationships among the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) to identify the mouse Bmp15 and human BMP15 genes. The 392-amino acid prepropeptides encoded by these BMP genes exhibit significant homology to each other, although the 70% identity observed between the 125-amino acid mature peptides is considerably lower than that seen in comparisons of other mouse and human ortholo...
