{"symbol":"BMPER","synonyms":["CRIM3","CV-2","CV2"],"name":"BMP binding endothelial regulator","description":"This gene encodes a secreted protein that interacts with, and inhibits bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) function. It has been shown to inhibit BMP2- and BMP4-dependent osteoblast differentiation and BMP-dependent differentiation of the chondrogenic cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with a lethal skeletal disorder, diaphanospondylodysostosis.
