The role of chordin and twisted gastrulation in regulating BMP family growth factors
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are growth factors of the TGF-β superfamily. They are essential to early embryonic patterning, and are of interest in a range of pathologies. The secreted glycoprotein chordin binds to BMPs and antagonizes their signalling by preventing them from interacting with t...
