TGF beta signaling pathway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
The Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) signaling pathway is involved in many cellular processes in both the adult organism and the developing embryo
including cell growth, cell differentiation, apoptosis, cellular homeostasis and other cellular functions. In spite of the wide range of cellular processes that the TGFβ
signaling pathway regulates, the process is relatively simple. TGFβ superfamily ligands bind to a type II receptor, which recruits and phosphorylates a type I
receptor. The type I receptor then phosphorylates receptor-regulated SMADs (R-SMADs) which can now bind the coSMAD SMAD4. R-SMAD/coSMAD
complexes accumulate in the nucleus where they act as transcription factors and participate in the regulation of target gene expression.

[edit] Ligand Binding
The TGF Beta superfamily of ligands include: Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), Growth and differentiation factors (GDFs), Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH),
Activin, Nodal and TGFβ's
[1]
. Signalling begins with the binding of a TGF beta superfamily ligand to a TGF beta type II receptor. The type II receptor is a
serine/threonine receptor kinase, which catalyses the phosphorylation of the Type I receptor. Each class of ligand binds to a specific type II receptor
[2]
.In mammals
there are seven known type I receptors and five type II receptors
[3]
.
There are three activins: Activin A, Activin B and Activin AB. Activins are involved in embryogenesis and osteogenesis. They also regulate many hormones
including pituitary, gonadal and hypothalamic hormones as well as insulin. They are also nerve cell survival factors.
The BMPs bind to the Bone morphogenetic protein receptor type-2 (BMPR2). They are involved in a multitude of cellular functions including osteogenesis, cell
differentiation, anterior/posterior axis specification, growth, and homeostasis.
The TGF beta family include: TGFβ1, TGFβ2, TGFβ3. Like the BMPS, TGF betas are involved in embryogenesis and cell differentiation, but they are also involved
in apoptosis, as well as other functions. They bind to TGF-beta receptor type-2 (TGFBR2).
Nodal binds to activin A receptor, type IIB ACVR2B. It can then either form a receptor complex with activin A receptor, type IB (ACVR1B) or with activin A
receptor, type IC (ACVR1C)
