Description

bone morphogenetic protein 2b

Gene Summary

Enables identical protein binding activity and protein heterodimerization activity. Involved in dorsal/ventral axis specification. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; nervous system development; and regionalization. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; digestive system; ectoderm; fin; and mesoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including bone disease (multiple); hemochromatosis type 1; otosclerosis; short stature, facial dysmorphism, and skeletal anomalies with or without cardiac anomalies 1; and tooth agenesis. Orthologous to human BMP2 (bone morphogenetic protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]
