Background
Activins are dimeric growth and differentiation factors which belong to the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of structurally related signaling proteins. Activins signal through a heteromeric complex of receptor serine kinases which include at least two type I ( I and IB) and two type II (II and IIB) receptors. These receptors are all transmembrane proteins, composed of a ligand-binding extracellular domain with cysteine-rich region, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain with predicted serine/threonine specificity. Type I receptors are essential for signaling, and type II receptors are required for binding ligands and for expression of type I receptors. Type I and II receptors form a stable complex after ligand binding, resulting in phosphorylation of type I receptors by type II receptors. This gene encodes activin A type I receptor which signals a particular transcriptional response in concert with activin type II receptors. Mutations in this gene are associated with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressive.,ACVR1, ACTRI, ACVR1A, ACVRLK2, ALK2, FOP, SKR1, TSRI, activin receptor type-1,Epigenetics & Nuclear Signaling,Signal Transduction,Kinase,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Apoptosis,Cytoskeleton,Microfilaments,Extracellular Matrix,Bone,Stem Cells,Cardiovascular,Angiogenesis,ACVR1
