ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family and the TGF-beta superfamily. This group of proteins is characterized by a polybasic proteolytic processing site which is cleaved to produce a mature protein containing seven conserved cysteine residues. The members of this family are regulators of cell growth and differentiation in both embryonic and adult tissues. Studies in mice and Xenopus suggest that this protein is involved in mesodermal formation and neurogenesis during embryonic development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
GDF11: Secreted signal that acts globally to specify positional identity along the anterior/posterior axis during development. Play critical roles in patterning both mesodermal and neural tissues and in establishing the skeletal pattern. Belongs to the TGF-beta family. Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13.2. Cellular Component: extracellular space. Molecular Function: growth factor activity; cytokine activity; transforming growth factor beta receptor binding. Biological Process: nervous system development; cell maturation; palate development; regulation of apoptosis; negative regulation of cell proliferation; negative regulation of cell differentiation; camera-type eye morphogenesis; spinal cord anterior/posterior patterning; ureteric bud development; regulation of MAPKKK cascade; pancreas development; mesoderm development; cell development; skeletal development; metanephros development; growth
