It has a mass of approximately 55 kDa. Activin Receptor Type IA is widely expressed in various tissues including skeletal muscle heart and central nervous system. It functions through the binding of ligands like activins and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) which triggers intracellular signaling cascades important for cellular processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nActivin Receptor Type IA plays a significant role in several cellular activities including growth and differentiation. It operates as part of a receptor complex with type II receptors like ACVR2A protein which facilitates ligand binding and phosphorylation. Activin receptor is essential for the regulation of mesoderm induction and organ development notably in the skeletal and muscular systems. Its interaction with activin protein family members influences various developmental processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nActivin Receptor Type IA is an integral component of the TGF-beta signaling pathway and BMP pathway. These pathways are vital for embryonic development and tissue homeostasis. Activin receptor interacts with the SMAD family of proteins which mediate signal transduction to the nucleus influencing gene expression. Through these pathways it relates functionally to SMAD1 and SMAD2 proteins that contribute to cell proliferation and differentiation dynamics.\u003cbr\u003e\nActivin Receptor Type IA is associated with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) and cancer. Mutations in the ACVR1 gene can lead to abnormal bone growth seen in FOP commonly due to erroneous activation of the BMP signaling pathway. In some cancers the dysregulation of activin receptor signaling can alter cell proliferation rates placing it in connection with proteins involved in oncogenic processes. Targeting activin receptor pathways might offer therapeutic potential in certain diseases by modulating or restoring its normal signaling capability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843988672681,"sku":"ab268330","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab268330","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
