{"product_id":"r31125","title":"BMPR1B Antibody","description":"\u003cp\u003eBone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor Type IB, also known as ALK6, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the BMPR1B gene. It is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein(BMP) receptor family of transmembrane serine\/threonine kinases. The ligands of this receptor are BMPs, which are members of the TGF-beta superfamily. BMPs are involved in endochondral bone formation and embryogenesis. These proteins transduce their signals through the formation of heteromeric complexes of two different types of serine(threonine) kinase receptors: type I receptors of about 50-55 kD and type II receptors of about 70-80 kD. Type II receptors bind ligands in the absence of type I receptors, but they require their respective type I receptors for signaling, whereas type I receptors require their respective type II receptors for ligand binding. By analysis of a monochromosome hybrid mapping panel and by FISH, Astrom et al.(1999) mapped the BMPR1B gene to chromosome 4q22-q24. Ide et al.(1997) compared BMP receptor expression in normal and cancerous prostate tissues. While BMPR1A and BMPR2 were expressed at similar levels in all prostate tissues, BMPR1B was expressed at a significantly reduced level in cancerous prostate tissue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"100 ug \/ Rabbit","offer_id":49476762927384,"sku":"R31125","price":439.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/5652\/1400\/files\/get_image_eb643a94-987e-45e0-94f0-e2d5e23d504a.jpg?v=1734482853","url":"https:\/\/danabiosci.com\/products\/r31125","provider":"Dana Bioscience","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
