activin receptor type-2B; activin receptor type IIB; ACTR-IIB (ACVR2B)

Function: - on ligand binding, forms a receptor complex consisting of two type 2 & two type 1 transmembrane Ser/Thr kinases - type 2 receptors phosphorylate & activate type 1 receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind & activate SMAD (SMAD2 & SMAD3 transcriptional regulators - receptor for activin A, activin B & inhibin A - interacts with myostatin [3] Cofactor: Mg+2 or Mn+2 (putative) Structure: - belongs to the protein kinase superfamily, TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family, TGFB receptor subfamily - contains 1 protein kinase domain Compartment: membrane Alternative splicing: named isoforms=2 Pathology: - defects in ACVR2B are a cause of left-right axis malformations
