TGFB3

This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate a latency-associated peptide (LAP) and a mature peptide, and is found in either a latent form composed of a mature peptide homodimer, a LAP homodimer, and a latent TGF-beta binding protein, or in an active form consisting solely of the mature peptide homodimer. The mature peptide may also form heterodimers with other TGF-beta family members. This protein is involved in embryogenesis and cell differentiation, and may play a role in wound healing. Mutations in this gene are a cause of aortic aneurysms and dissections, as well as familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 1.

Interaction

Interacts with ASPN (PubMed:8819159). Latency-associated peptide: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Latency-associated peptide: Interacts with Transforming growth factor beta-3 (TGF-beta-3) chain; interaction is non-covalent and maintains (TGF-beta-3) in a latent state (By similarity). Latency-associated peptide: Interacts with LRRC32/GARP; leading to regulate activation of TGF-beta-3 and promote epithelial fusion during palate development (By similarity). Latency-associated peptide: Interacts (via cell attachment site) with integrins, leading to release of the active TGF-beta-3 (By similarity). Transforming growth factor beta-3: Homodimer; disulfide-linked (PubMed:8819159). Transforming growth factor beta-3: Interacts with TGF-beta receptors (TGFBR1 and TGFBR2), leading to signal transduction (By similarity).
