Description
Enables mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase binding activity and transforming growth factor beta receptor activity, type II. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to acetaldehyde; negative regulation of cardiac muscle cell proliferation; and transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Located in caveola and cell surface. Used to study membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. Biomarker of artery disease (multiple); hepatobiliary system cancer (multiple); kidney disease; pulmonary fibrosis; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Loeys-Dietz syndrome 2; Lynch syndrome (multiple); Marfan syndrome; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); and mismatch repair cancer syndrome. Orthologous to human TGFBR2 (transforming growth factor beta receptor 2).

3 Proteins

3.1 Protein Function

Transmembrane serine/threonine kinase forming with the TGF-beta type I serine/threonine kinase receptor, TGFBR1, the non-promiscuous receptor for the TGF-beta cytokines TGFB1, TGFB2 and TGFB3. Transduces the TGFB1, TGFB2 and TGFB3 signal from the cell surface to the cytoplasm and is thus regulating a plethora of physiological and pathological processes including cell cycle arrest in epithelial and hematopoietic cells, control of mesenchymal cell proliferation and differentiation, wound healing, extracellular matrix production, immunosuppression and carcinogenesis. The formation of the receptor complex composed of 2 TGFBR1 and 2 TGFBR2 molecules symmetrically bound to the cytokine dimer results in the phosphorylation and the activation of TGFRB1 by the constitutively active TGFBR2. Activated TGFBR1 phosphorylates SMAD2 which dissociates from the receptor and interacts with SMAD4. The SMAD2-SMAD4 complex is subsequently translocated to the nucleus where it modulates the transcription of the TGF-beta-regulated genes. This constitutes the canonical SMAD-dependent TGF-beta signaling cascade. Also involved in non-canonical, SMAD-independent TGF-beta signaling pathways (By similarity).
