caution:In (PubMed:9545258) and in (PubMed:10051563) experimental information is given for a truncated version of TGFBRAP1 (sequence of 474-860), which was later shown to act as a dominant negative.,function:Plays a role in the TGF-beta/activin signaling pathway. It associates with inactive heteromeric TGF-beta and activin receptor complexes, mainly through the type II receptor, and is released upon activation of signaling. May recruit SMAD4 to the vicinity of the receptor complex and facilitate its interaction with receptor-regulated Smads, such as SMAD2.,similarity:Belongs to the TRAP1 family.,subcellular location:Colocalizes with TGF-beta receptors in the absence of signaling.,subunit:Interacts with TGFBR2 and ACVR2B; in the absence of ligand stimulation. Interacts with TGFBR1, ACVRL1, BMPR1A and ACVR1B; in the absence of ligand stimulation and to a less extent. Interacts with SMAD4; the interaction seems to be mutually exclusive with the interaction of SMAD4 and phosphorylated SMAD2. May interact with ALOX5.,
