Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 2658
Gene name Growth differentiation factor 2
Gene symbol GDF2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BMP-9BMP9HHT5
Chromosome 10
Chromosome location 10q11.22
Summary This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate
