Description

The TGFβ (transforming growth factor β) superfamily proteins are pleiotropic cytokines that regulate a diverse range of cellular processes, including proliferation, differentiation, migration, adhesion and death.  The TGFβ superfamily elicits 4 signaling pathways: TGFβ, Bone Morphogenic Protein (BMP), Activin, and Nodal.  Each pathway signals through a heteromeric receptor complex composed of at least two type-I and two type-II transmembrane receptors containing cytoplasmic serine/threonine kinase domains. These receptors are distinguished by the presence of a glycine/serine-rich juxta-membrane domain found only in the type I receptors. Either type receptor may initially bind ligand, followed by the recruitment of an alternate-type receptor counterpart to form a signal-activating complex. The type I receptors are also referred to as ALKs (Activin receptor-like kinases). ACVR1 (Activin receptor type-1), also known as ACVR1A, ALK2, FOP, SKR1, TSRI, ACVRLK2, and ActRI, is a type I receptor in the TGFβ receptor family.  ACVR1 was identified as a receptor for both Activin and BMP.  It is expressed in normal parenchymal cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and tumor-derived epithelial cells.  ACVR1 plays a critical role in gastrulation, skeletal system development, and cardiac morphogenesis. It may be required for left-right pattern formation during embryogenesis.  Overexpression of ACVR1 causes a mitotic arrest. ACVR1 can phosphorylate the co-receptor Endoglin and mediate the inhibitory effect of Endoglin on prostate cancer cell motility.  Defects in ACVR1 are associated with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP).

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CGGGAAGCAATAGCATGATA-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
