ACVR2A
geneOn this page
Also known as ACTRII
Summary
ACVR2A (activin A receptor type 2A, HGNC:173) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2q22.3-q23.1, encoding Activin receptor type-2A (P27037). On ligand binding, forms a receptor complex consisting of two type II and two type I transmembrane serine/threonine kinases.
This gene encodes a receptor that mediates the functions of activins, which are members of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily involved in diverse biological processes. The encoded protein is a transmembrane serine-threonine kinase receptor which mediates signaling by forming heterodimeric complexes with various combinations of type I and type II receptors and ligands in a cell-specific manner. The encoded type II receptor is primarily involved in ligand-binding and includes an extracellular ligand-binding domain, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic serine-threonine kinase domain. This gene may be associated with susceptibility to preeclampsia, a pregnancy-related disease which can result in maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 188 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
