General annotation (Comments)

Function

Serine/threonine protein kinase which forms a receptor complex on ligand binding. The receptor complex consisting of 2 type II and 2 type I transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind and activate SMAD transcriptional regulators, SMAD2 and SMAD3. Receptor for activin AB, activin B and NODAL. Plays a role in cell differentiation, growth arrest and apoptosis.

Catalytic activity

ATP + [receptor-protein] = ADP + [receptor-protein] phosphate.

Cofactor

Magnesium or manganese.

Subunit structure

Binds the type 2 receptor protein ACVR2A By similarity.

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.

Tissue specificity

Present in pancreas, heart, colon, small intestine, ovary and the hippocampus, medulla oblongata and putamen of the brain. Isoform 1, isoform 2, isoform 3 and isoform 4 are all expressed in the placenta throughout pregnancy.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family. TGFB receptor subfamily.

Contains 1 GS domain.

Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

Isoform 2 (identifier: Q8NER5-2)

Also known as: B; soluble B;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     102-258: Missing.
Isoform 3 (identifier: Q8NER5-3)

Also known as: A; soluble A;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     102-181: Missing.
Isoform 4 (identifier: Q8NER5-4)

Also known as: Truncated;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-50: Missing.
