Methods The template DNA was obtained from the human osteosarcoma cell line U2OS. By using RT PCR method, the cDNA coding for the mature fragment of BMP 4 was amplified, cloned into the vector pUC19, and sequenced by Sanger Dideoxy mediated Chain Termination method. Results The mature fragment of BMP4 cDNA was obtained by RT PCR and determined by sequencing. Through the computer search on Genebank, the analysis showed that the homology of nucleotides and amino acids between cDNA of rhBMP4 mature fragment of this study and the published sequence was 99%. Sequence analysis showed that there were two differences, one was at base 1154(201): G→C, which had no influence on the corresponding amino acids(Val). Another was at base1222(269):C→T, the mutation at the base 1222 had the change of Ala to Val. Conclusion The mature fragment of BMP4 gene has been cloned. The results will be of great significance in treatment of skeletal injuries and diseases.展开更多
