Three distinct classes of SMADs have been defined: the receptor-regulated SMADs (R-SMADs), which include SMAD1, 2, 3, 5, and 9; the common-mediator SMAD (co-SMAD), SMAD4; and the antagonistic or inhibitory SMADs (I-SMADs), SMAD6 and 7 (1-5). Activated type I receptors associate with specific R-SMADs and phosphorylate them on a conserved carboxy-terminal SSXS motif. The phosphorylated R-SMADs dissociate from the receptor and form a heteromeric complex with SMAD4, initiating translocation of the heteromeric SMAD complex to the nucleus. Once in the nucleus, SMADs recruit a variety of DNA binding proteins that function to regulate transcriptional activity (6-8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\n7120426M23Rik; Mad; MAD homolog 2; MAD homolog 2 (Drosophila); Mad-related protein 2; Madh; Madh2; Madr2; mMad2; Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2; Mothers against DPP homolog 2; SMAD 2; SMAD family member 2; Smad-2; Smad2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800511238313,"sku":"67617S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-67617s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
