The instant application provides kits and methods for identifying agents which induce or inhibit the osteogenic effect of LMP or BMP proteins. The kits are directed to methods which measure either an amount of a complex between a Smurf protein or a fragment thereof and an LMP protein or a fragment thereof. Alternatively, the kits are directed to methods of measuring an amount of the ubiquitinated Smad protein or a fragment thereof.
