GDF-5/CDMP-1 active protein
Mouse GDF-5/CDMP-1
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
Function: Growth factor that controls proliferation and cellular differentiation in the retina and bone formation. Plays a key role in regulating apoptosis during retinal development. Establishes dorsal-ventral positional information in the retina and controls the formation of the retinotectal map. Required for normal formation of bones and joints in the limbs, skull, and axial skeleton. Plays a key role in establishing boundaries between skeletal elements during development. May signal through the growth factor receptors subunits BMPR1A, BMPR1B, BMPR2 and ACVR2A. Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.5
Subunit structure: Homodimer; disulfide-linked
By similarity.
Subcellular location: Secreted
By similarity.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in different subsets of developing joints. Ref.3
Disruption phenotype: Mice lacking Gdf6 display photoreceptor degeneration. Animals exhibit abnormal electroretinograms with up to 66% decreases in the bipolar cell-driven b-wave and 54% decreases in the photoreceptor-mediated a-wave amplitudes, as well as 3 to 27% reduced photopic flicker fusion. Ref.5
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the TGF-beta family.

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GDF-5/CDMP-1, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
