Activin C: cDNA Clones

Activins and Inhibins are TGF beta superfamily proteins that regulate a wide range of processes including mesoderm induction, reproductive system development and function, liver growth and regeneration, wound healing, and inflammation. Activins signal through heterodimeric receptor complexes composed of type I (Activin RIA or RIB) and type II (Activin RIIA or RIIB) transmembrane Ser/Thr kinases. Activin C is expressed as an approximately dimer predominantly by hepatocytes but also by multiple ...
