The present invention provides modified, highly potent bone morphogenetic proteins. In particular, the present invention relates to the observation that BMP-6 and BMP-9 are less susceptible to inhibition by Noggin that are other members of the BMP subfamily of proteins. The present invention features chimeric bone morphogenetic proteins in which the middle portion of BMP-6 or BMP-9 replaces the middle portion of another BMP subfamily protein to cause resistance to inhibition by Noggin or other Noggin- like antagonists. Other embodiments of modified BMPs, compositions and methods of use are also included.

L'invention concerne des protéines morphogénétiques de l'os modifiées très puissantes. L'invention repose en particulier sur l'observation que BMP-6 et BMP-9 sont moins susceptibles d'être inhibées par Noggin que les autres membres de la sous-famille de protéines BMP. L'invention se rapporte à des protéines morphogénétiques de l'os chimériques dans lesquelles on substitue la partie médiane de BMP-6 ou BMP-9 à la partie médiane d'une autre protéine de la sous-famille BMP afin de lui conférer une résistance à l'inhibition par Noggin ou par d'autres antagonistes de type Noggin. L'invention porte également sur d'autres modes de réalisation de BMP modifiées, et sur des compositions et des procédés d'utilisation.
