摘要: 骨形成蛋白是属于转移生长因子-β超家族生长因子的一种分泌型信号分子。迄今为止,已有30多个骨形成蛋白被确定,骨形成蛋白15基因在卵母细胞中表达,具有推动卵泡生长,阻止黄体早熟的作用。本文综述了骨形成蛋白15基因的研究现状。
Abstract:Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are secreted signalling molecules belonging to the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) surperfamily.Up to date,more than 30 members of BMPs are identified.Bone morphogenetic protein-15 is only expressed in oocytes.Oocyte-specific BMP-15 might promote follicle growth in vivo,while preventing premature luteinization.This paper biefly discusses the progress in the research area of BMP-15 gene being as a candidate gene for litter size.
