Abstract excerpt
Smad7 functions as an intracellular antagonist in transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling. In addition to interacting stably with the activated TGF-beta type I receptor (TbetaRI) to prevent phosphorylation of the receptor-regulated Smads (Smad2 and Smad3), Smad7 also induces degradation of the activated TbetaRI through association with different E3 ubiquitin ligases. Using the two-hybrid screen, we...
