Cloning and functional analysis of BMP3 in the pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata)

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are multifunctional secreted cytokines that play important roles in bone formation. In the present study, a homologous BMP3 gene was identified from Pinctada fucata (PfBMP3). PfBMP3 was 2710 bp length, contained 1470 bp of ORFs. PfBMP3 gene was expressed at all sta...
