Growth/differentiation factor 11, also called Bone morphogenetic protein 11, is a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein plays a role in the development of the nervous and other organ systems, and may regulate aging. [RefSeq]

Optimal dilution of the BMP11 antibody should be determined by the researcher.

A synthetic peptide specific to human BMP11 / GDF11 was used as the immunogen for the BMP11 antibody.

Store the BMP11 antibody at -20oC.
