Abstract

Abstract Disclosed are osteogenic devices comprising a matrix containing substantially pure mammalian osteogenic protein and methods of inducing endochondral bone growth in mammals. A partial amino acid sequence, amino acid composition, solubility properties, and various other data characterizing osteogenic protein are also disclosed, as well as a nucleic acid sequences encoding a consensus osteogenic protein.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 71 words
A DNA sequence which hybridizes with the DNA probe sequence: ##STR13## said DNA sequence encoding a polypeptide chain which, when expressed, associated with a second said polypeptide chain, oxidized to form a dimeric protein species and implanted together with a matrix in a mammal induces endochondral bone formation in said mammal, said dimeric protein species having a half maximum bone forming activity of at lest 25-50 ng per 25 mg matrix.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 71 words
A DNA sequence which hybridizes with the DNA probe sequence: ##STR13## said DNA sequence encoding a polypeptide chain which, when expressed, associated with a second said polypeptide chain, oxidized to form a dimeric protein species and implanted together with a matrix in a mammal induces endochondral bone formation in said mammal, said dimeric protein species having a half maximum bone forming activity of at lest 25-50 ng per 25 mg matrix.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 53 words
A DNA sequence useful as a probe for genetic sequences encoding an osteogenic polypeptide chain, said polypeptide chain being capable of inducing endochondral bone formation in a mammal when associated with a second polypeptide chain, oxidized to form a dimeric protein species, and implanted in said mammal in association with a matrix, ##STR14##
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 53 words
A DNA sequence useful as a probe for genetic sequences encoding an osteogenic polypeptide chain, said polypeptide chain being capable of inducing endochondral bone formation in a mammal when associated with a second polypeptide chain, oxidized to form a dimeric protein species, and implanted in said mammal in association with a matrix, ##STR14##
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 50 words
A DNA sequence comprising the sequence: ##STR15## said DNA sequence encoding a polypeptide chain which, when expressed, associated with a second polypeptide chain, oxidized to form a dimeric protein species and implanted in a mammal in association with a matrix, is capable of inducing endochondral bone formation in said mammal.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 50 words
A DNA sequence comprising the sequence: ##STR15## said DNA sequence encoding a polypeptide chain which, when expressed, associated with a second polypeptide chain, oxidized to form a dimeric protein species and implanted in a mammal in association with a matrix, is capable of inducing endochondral bone formation in said mammal.
