Smad2 | Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2; Receptor-regulated SMAD (R-SMAD) that is an intracellular signal transducer and transcriptional modulator activated by TGF-beta (transforming growth factor) and activin type 1 receptor kinases. Binds the TRE element in the promoter region of many genes that are regulated by TGF-beta and, on formation of the SMAD2/SMAD4 complex, activates transcription. May act as a tumor suppressor in colorectal carcinoma. Positively regulates PDPK1 kinase activity by stimulating its dissociation from the 14-3-3 protein YWHAQ which acts as a negative regulator [...] (467 aa) | ||||
Tbc1d17 | TBC1 domain family member 17; Probable GTPase-activating protein for Rab8; its transient association with Rab8 is mediated by OPTN. Inhibits Rab8-mediated endocytic trafficking, such as of transferrin receptor (TfR) and reduces Rab8 recruitnment to tubules emanating from the endocytic recycling compartment (ERC). Involved in regulation of autophagy. Mediates inhibition of autophagy caused by the OPTN variant GLC1E LYS- 50; the function requires its catalytic activity, however, the involved Rab is not known (By similarity). (645 aa) |
