ANTI-ACTIVIN RECEPTOR TYPE IA (ACVR1) (CENTER R147) antibody produced in rabbit

Activin A receptor type 1 (ACVR1) gene encodes a transmembrane protein that belongs to the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) type I receptors subfamily of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) receptors. ACVR1 is a single-pass type I membrane protein with a ligand-binding extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. ACVR1 gene is expressed abundantly in endothelial cells, parenchymal cells, fibroblasts, and tumor-derived epithelial cells. This gene is located on human chromosome 2q24.1.

Anti-Activin receptor type IA (ACVR1) (CENTER R147) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemistry (1:100) and western blot (1:100).

Activin A receptor type 1 (ACVR1) protein can bind activin in concert with activin receptor type 2 (ActRII) or activin receptor type-2B (ActRIIB). It participates in activin signaling. It is also capable of forming a complex with either the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2/7-bound bone morphogenetic protein receptor type II (BMPR-II) or activin A receptor type 2A/2B (ACVR2A/ACVR2B). Somatic mutations of the ACVR1 gene are associated with primary ovary and colon cancer. It is considered a target gene to fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP).
