Anti-TGFA1

transforming growth factor beta receptor associated protein 1(TGFBRAP1) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a protein that binds to transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) receptors and plays a role in TGF-beta signaling. The encoded protein acts as a chaprone in signaling downstream of TGF-beta. It is involved in signal-dependent association with SMAD4. The protein is also a component of mammalian CORVET, a multisubunit tethering protein complex that is involved in fusion of early endosomes. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016], Protein function: Plays a role in the TGF-beta/activin signaling pathway. It associates with inactive heteromeric TGF-beta and activin receptor complexes, mainly through the type II receptor, and is released upon activation of signaling. May recruit SMAD4 to the vicinity of the receptor complex and facilitate its interaction with receptor-regulated Smads, such as SMAD2.
