The transforming growth factor-β superfamily of receptors
Abstract
The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of receptors comprises two groups of transmembrane serine-threonine kinase receptors, so called type I, and type II receptors, that are activated following engagement by members of the TGF-beta superfamily of ligands. These events specify diverse downstream responses that are differentially regulated by controlling access and activation of the ligands, their receptors and downstream substrates in different cell types. The purpose of this review is to describe the biochemical properties of these receptors, focusing specifically on the mechanisms regulating receptor/ligand interactions and activation in mammalian cells.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
