BMP8B encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins.
Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression.
The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer.
The encoded protein stimulates thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue.
Expression of this gene may be downregulated in pancreatic cancer.
This gene may have arose from a gene duplication event and its gene duplicate is also present on chromosome 1.
