Abstract
Purified Bone Morphogenetic Protein-11 proteins and processes for producing them are disclosed. Recombinant DNA molecules encoding the BMP-11 proteins are also disclosed. The proteins may be useful in regulating follicle stimulating hormone, such as for contraception, and for the induction of bone, cartilage and/or other connective tissue.
