| UniProt functional annotation for O95405 | |||
| UniProt code: O95405. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Early endosomal protein that functions to recruit SMAD2/SMAD3 to intracellular membranes and to the TGF-beta receptor. Plays a significant role in TGF-mediated signaling by regulating the subcellular location of SMAD2 and SMAD3 and modulating the transcriptional activity of the SMAD3/SMAD4 complex. Possibly associated with TGF-beta receptor internalization. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15356634, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9865696}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts (via the SBD region) with SMAD2; the interaction recruits SMAD2 to the TGF-beta receptor and is disrupted by phosphorylation of SMAD2 upon TGF-beta receptor activation. Interacts with SMAD3. Interacts with TGFBR1 and TGFBR2; the interaction recruits SMAD2 to the TGF-beta receptor. Interacts with PML. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10615055, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12154125, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15356634, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9865696}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. Early endosome membrane. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Ubiquitous. In the brain found primarily in the cerebrovascular smooth muscle cells and reactive astrocytes. | |
| Domain: | The SMAD binding domain (SBD) interacts with the MH2 domains of SMAD2 or SMAD3. | |
| Domain: | The FYVE-type zinc finger is necessary and sufficient for its localization into early endosomes and mediates the association with PI3P. | |
| Miscellaneous: | [Isoform 2]: May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAC99462.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Truncated N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAD31694.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
