Novel serine/threonine receptor proteins and BMP receptor proteins are disclosed, as well as DNA molecules encoding the BMP receptor proteins and methods of using the receptor proteins. Further disclosed are truncated BMP receptor proteins and molecules which act as ligands to the BMP receptor proteins.

DNA molecules encoding BMP receptor proteins

Novel serine/threonine receptor proteins and BMP receptor proteins are disclosed, as well as DNA molecules encoding these proteins and methods of using the receptor proteins. Further disclosed are truncated BMP receptor proteins and molecules which act as ligands to these BMP receptor proteins.

Receptor proteins

Purified BMP-11 proteins and processes for producing them are disclosed. Recombinant DNA molecules encoding the BMP-11 proteins are also disclosed. The proteins may be useful in regulating follicle stimulating hormone, such as for contraception. In addition, the proteins may be useful for the induction and/or maintenance of bone, cartilage and/or other connective tissue, and/or neuronal tissue.

Neuronal uses of BMP-11

Novel serine/threonine receptor proteins and BMP receptor proteins are disclosed, as well as DNA molecules encoding said proteins and methods of using the receptor proteins. Further disclosed are truncated BMP receptor proteins and molecules which act as ligands to said BMP receptor proteins.

BMP receptor proteins

Purified bone morphogenetic protein-9 (BMP-9) proteins and processes for producing them are disclosed. The proteins may be used in the treatment of bone and cartilage defects and in wound healing and related tissue repair.

BMP-9 compositions

Purified Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP)-9 proteins and processes for producing them are disclosed. The proteins may be used in the treatment of bone and cartilage defects and in wound healing and related tissue repair, and in hepatic growth and function.
