الوصف: | International audience ; Oocyte-derived bone morphogenetic protein-15 (BMP15) is critical for the regulation of mammalian fertility. Previously we have found that a C-terminal His-tag destroys the bioactivity of growth differentiation-9 (GDF9, a homolog of BMP15). In this study we found that recombinant human BMP15 is produced by HEK-293T cells in an active form, but the bioactivity is lost by C-terminal modification, specifically, fusion to a Flag tag. After purification the mature BMP15wt is active in transcriptional reporter assays specific for Smad1/5/8 in human granulosa-luteal (hGL) and COV434 granulosa tumor cells, whereas BMP15 with a carboxy-terminal Flag tag remains inactive. Using these same cell models we found that treatment with purified mature BMP15wt causes a rapid phosphorylation of Smad1. The purified BMP15wt is a potent stimulator of rat granulosa cell DNA synthesis, which could be antagonized by the BMPRII ectodomain-Fc fusion molecule, whereas the BMP15C-Flag was completely inactive. Further, the BMP15wt form is a potent stimulator of inhibin B production in hGL cells. We found that the purified BMP15wt consists of P16 and -17, both of which are post-translationally modified forms. This is the first characterization of a purified untagged human BMP15 mature region, which is stable and highly bioactive in human and rodent granulosa cells and as such is of importance for studies on human fertility. |
