  2. ACVR1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACVR1

    The typical FOP patient has the amino acid arginine substituted for the amino acid histidine at position 206 in this protein. [10] [11] This causes a change in the critical glycine-serine activation domain of the protein which will cause the protein to bind its inhibitory ligand (FKBP12) less tightly, and thus over-activate the BMP/SMAD pathway ...

    Type 1 contains a glycine-serine-rich domain to be phosphorylated by type 2 kinase domain, initiating the signaling transduction pathway of the SMAD signaling cascade. [3] The wrist epitope motif on BMP-2 has a high-affinity binding site for BMPR-IA. The knuckle epitope motif on BMP-2 has a low-affinity binding site for BMPR-II. [4]

  4. Bone morphogenetic protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_morphogenetic_protein

    BMPs interact with specific receptors on the cell surface, referred to as bone morphogenetic protein receptors (BMPRs). Signal transduction through BMPRs results in mobilization of members of the SMAD family of proteins. The signaling pathways involving BMPs, BMPRs and SMADs are important in the development of the heart, central nervous system ...

  5. Repulsive guidance molecule A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repulsive_guidance_molecule_A

    Repulsive guidance molecule A (RGMa) is a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) co-receptor of the repulsive guidance molecule family. Together with BMPR1A and BMPR1B, as well as ACVR2A and BMPR2, it binds BMPs thereby activating the intracellular SMAD1/5/8 signalling pathway. [5] In humans this protein is encoded by the RGMA gene. [6]

  6. Bone morphogenetic protein receptor, type 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_morphogenetic_protein...

    Bone morphogenetic protein type I receptors are single pass, type I transmembrane proteins. They belong to a class of receptor serine/threonine kinases that bind members of the TGF beta superfamily of ligands—the bone morphogenetic proteins .

  7. Bone morphogenetic protein 4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_morphogenetic_protein_4

    Bone morphogenetic protein 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by BMP4 gene. [4] [5] BMP4 is found on chromosome 14q22-q23. BMP4 is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein family which is part of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily. The superfamily includes large families of growth and differentiation factors. BMP4 is highly ...

  8. Activin type 2 receptors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activin_type_2_receptors

    The activin type 2 receptors belong to a larger TGF-beta receptor family and modulate signals for transforming growth factor beta ligands. These receptors are involved in a host of physiological processes including, growth, cell differentiation, homeostasis, osteogenesis, apoptosis and many other functions.

  9. Bone morphogenetic protein 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_morphogenetic_protein_1

    Bone morphogenetic protein 1, also known as BMP1, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the BMP1 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] There are seven isoforms of the protein created by alternate splicing . Function
