BMP1 encodes a protein that is capable of inducing formation of cartilage in vivo. Although other bone morphogenetic proteins are members of the TGF-beta superfamily, BMP1 encodes a protein that is not closely related to other known growth factors. BMP1 is expressed as alternatively spliced variants that share an N-terminal protease domain but differ in their C-terminal region. BMP1 (Bone Morphogenetic Protein 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with BMP1 include Osteogenesis Imperfecta, Type Xiii and Bmp1-Related Osteogenesis Imperfecta. Among its related pathways are p70S6K Signaling and SMAD Signaling Network.
