Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), a subgroup of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily, were originally isolated from bone on the basis of their ability to induce ectopic bone development. Although BMPs are involved in a wide range of developmental and physiological functions, very few vertebrate target genes in this pathway have been identified. To identify target genes regulated by the BMP growth factor family in Xenopus, large-scale microarray analyses were conducted to ...[more]
