CofactorName=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Name=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
FunctionSerine/threonine protein kinase which forms a receptor complex on ligand binding. The receptor complex consisting of 2 type II and 2 type I transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind and activate SMAD transcriptional regulators, SMAD2 and SMAD3. Receptor for activin AB, activin B and NODAL. Plays a role in cell differentiation, growth arrest and apoptosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12063393, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15531507}.
SimilarityBelongs to the protein kinase superfamily. TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family. TGFB receptor subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 GS domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00585}.
SimilarityContains 1 protein kinase domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00159}.
Subcellular LocationMembrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12606401}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12606401}.
SubunitBinds the type 2 receptor protein ACVR2A. {ECO:0000250}.
Tissue SpecificityPresent in pancreas, heart, colon, small intestine, ovary and the hippocampus, medulla oblongata and putamen of the brain. Isoform 1, isoform 2, isoform 3 and isoform 4 are all expressed in the placenta throughout pregnancy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12063393, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12606401}.
