Primary Identifier | IPR024608 | Type | Domain |
Short Name | SARA_Smad-bd |
description | Smad proteins mediate transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling from the transmembrane serine-threonine receptor kinases to the nucleus. SARA (Smad anchor for receptor activation) recruits Smad2 to the TGF-beta receptors for phosphorylation [].This entry represents the Smad-binding domain (SBD) of SARA. This domain consists of a rigid coil, an alpha helix, and a beta strand, and interacts with Smad2 []. |
