MSH: A bone morphogenetic protein that is found at high concentrations in a purified osteoinductive protein fraction from BONE. Bone morphogenetic protein 3 is referred to as osteogenin, however it may play a role in variety of developmental processes.,NCI: Bone Morphogenetic Protein 3 (Osteogenic), encoded by the BMP3 gene that belongs to the transforming growth factor-beta (TGFB) superfamily. Bone morphogenic protein 3 induces bone formation by signaling through receptor serine/threonine kinases. It is expressed in lung, ovary and small intestine. The expression signals of BMP3 mRNA in malignant schwannoma are relatively lower than in benign lesions. (From LocusLink, Swiss_Prot and NCI)
