ACVR1C

Activin receptor type 1C
Other names: ACTR-IC, Activin receptor-like kinase 7, ALK-7
Genetic data
Gene code: HUGO code:ACVR1C
Protein Structure/Function
Protein type: Serine/Threonine receptor kinase
Domains: GS domain, TS domain, S/T domain
Other
Taxa expressing:Homo sapiens; homologs: many metazoan phyla
Cell types:ubiquitous
Subcellular localization:Plasma membrane
Enzymatic Data
Catalytic activity:ATP + (receptor-protein) = ADP + (receptor-protein) phosphate
Cofactor(s):Magnesium or manganese

ACVR1C or ALK-7 transduces signals of Nodal. Nodal binds to ACVR2B and then forms a comlex with ACR1C. These go on to recruit the R-SMADs SMAD2 or SMAD3.[1]
