ACVR1C

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Activin receptor type 1C
Other names:	ACTR-IC, Activin receptor-like kinase 7, ALK-7
Genetic data
Gene code:	HUGO code:ACVR1C
Protein Structure/Function
Protein type:	Serine/Threonine receptor kinase
Domains:	GS domain, TS domain, S/T domain
Other
Taxa expressing:	Homo sapiens; homologs: many metazoan phyla
Cell types:	ubiquitous
Subcellular localization:	Plasma membrane
Enzymatic Data
Catalytic activity:	ATP + (receptor-protein) = ADP + (receptor-protein) phosphate
Cofactor(s):	Magnesium or manganese

ACVR1C or ALK-7 transduces signals of Nodal. Nodal binds to ACVR2B and then forms a comlex with ACR1C. These go on to recruit the R-SMADs SMAD2 or SMAD3.^[1]
