background

Activin A receptor type I (ACVR1) encodes for a bone morphogenetic protein type I receptor of the TGFβ receptor superfamily. It is involved in a wide variety of biological processes, including bone, heart, cartilage, nervous, and reproductive system development and regulation. Moreover, ACVR1 has been extensively studied for its causal role in fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), a rare genetic disorder characterised by progressive heterotopic ossification. ACVR1 is linked to different pathologies, including cardiac malformations and alterations in the reproductive system.

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 12.51 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 15-25 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Function
Transmembrane serine/threonine kinase activin type-1 receptor forming an activin receptor complex with activin receptor type-2 (ACVR2A or ACVR2B). Transduces the activin signal from the cell surface to the cytoplasm and is thus regulating a many physiological and pathological processes including neuronal differentiation and neuronal survival, hair follicle development and cycling, FSH production by the pituitary gland, wound healing, extracellular matrix production, immunosuppression and carcinogenesis. Activin is also thought to have a paracrine or autocrine role in follicular development in the ovary. Within the receptor complex, type-2 receptors (ACVR2A and/or ACVR2B) act as a primary activin receptors whereas the type-1 receptors like ACVR1B act as downstream transducers of activin signals. Activin binds to type-2 receptor at the plasma membrane and activates its serine-threonine kinase. The activated receptor type-2 then phosphorylates and activates the type-1 receptor such as ACVR1B. Once activated, the type-1 receptor binds and phosphorylates the SMAD proteins SMAD2 and SMAD3, on serine residues of the C-terminal tail. Soon after their association with the activin receptor and subsequent phosphorylation, SMAD2 and SMAD3 are released into the cytoplasm where they interact with the common partner SMAD4. This SMAD complex translocates into the nucleus where it mediates activin-induced transcription. Inhibitory SMAD7, which is recruited to ACVR1B through FKBP1A, can prevent the association of SMAD2 and SMAD3 with the activin receptor complex, thereby blocking the activin signal. Activin signal transduction is also antagonized by the binding to the receptor of inhibin-B via the IGSF1 inhibin coreceptor. ACVR1B also phosphorylates TDP2.

Structure
Forms an activin receptor complex with activin receptor type-2 (ACVR2A or ACVR2B) (PubMed:8196624, PubMed:8622651, PubMed:9032295). Part of a complex consisting of MAGI2/ARIP1, ACVR2A, ACVR1B and SMAD3 (By similarity). Interacts with SMAD2 and SMAD3 (PubMed:9892009). Interacts with SMAD7 (PubMed:12023024, PubMed:16720724, PubMed:9892009). Interacts with FKBP1A (PubMed:16720724). Interacts with IGSF1 (PubMed:11266516). Interacts with CRIPTO (PubMed:11909953). Interacts with TDP2 (By similarity). Interacts with TSC22D1/TSC-22 (PubMed:21791611).
Post-translational modification
Autophosphorylated. Phosphorylated by activin receptor type-2 (ACVR2A or ACVR2B) in response to activin-binding at serine and threonine residues in the GS domain. Phosphorylation of ACVR1B by activin receptor type-2 regulates association with SMAD7.; Ubiquitinated. Level of ubiquitination is regulated by the SMAD7-SMURF1 complex.; Ubiquitinated.
