About Bmp6

Summary

Enables growth factor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to mechanical stimulus; positive regulation of aldosterone secretion; and positive regulation of cell differentiation. Located in cytoplasm; extracellular space; and vesicle. Biomarker of anemia; brain ischemia; and colitis. Orthologous to human BMP6 (bone morphogenetic protein 6).
