Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 8200
Gene name Growth differentiation factor 5
Gene symbol GDF5
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BDA1CBMP-14BMP14CDMP1DUPANSLAP-4LAP4OS5SYM1BSYNS2
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20q11.22
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
