Glossary Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2

protein crucial for bone and cartilage development

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 (BMP2) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the development of bone and cartilage. It is part of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) superfamily and is essential for the formation of new bone tissue, making it important in both embryonic development and the healing of bone fractures.
