Molecular assay reagents intended to identify mutations in the bone morphogenetic protein receptor, type IA (BMPR1A) gene, located at chromosome 10q22.3, which functions as a receptor protein in cellular processes mediated by BMPs. Mutations at this locus have been identified in patients with early-onset juvenile polyposis syndrome, but the exact role of this gene in juvenile polyposis is not clear.
