TGF-beta RIII / Unconjugated / H11-C5

Product Details

Description	A total of three members of the TGFβ family, TGFβ1, TGFβ2 and TGFβ3, have been identified in mammals. Each is synthesized as a latent precursor that is subsequently cleaved forming the 112 amino acid growth factor which becomes active upon dimerization. TGFβs mediate their activity by high affinity binding to the type II receptor transmembrane protein with a cytoplasmic serine-threonine kinase domain. TGFβ RIII (transforming growth factor beta receptor type 3), also known as TGFBR3 or TGFR-3, is an 850 amino acid secreted and single-pass type I membrane protein that contains one ZP domain and may assist in capturing TGFβ for presentation to signaling receptors. TGFβ RIII undergoes post-translational modification by glycosaminoglycan groups (GAG) and is encoded by a gene that maps to human chromosome 1p22.2.

About TGF-beta RIII
This locus encodes the transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta type III receptor. The encoded receptor is a membrane proteoglycan that often functions as a co-receptor with other TGF-beta receptor superfamily members. Ectodomain shedding produces soluble TGFBR3, which may inhibit TGFB signaling. Decreased expression of this receptor has been observed in various cancers. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]
