Activin receptor type-2A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ACVR2A gene.[5][6][7] ACVR2A is an
activin type 2 receptor
.
Function
This gene encodes activin A type II receptor. Activins are dimeric growth and differentiation factors which belong to the
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. Type II receptors are considered to be constitutively active kinases.[7]
