Target/Specificity | This Activin A Receptor Type IC (ACVR1C) antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 33-62 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human Activin A Receptor Type IC (ACVR1C). |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P~~1:50~100 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is prepared by Saturated Ammonium Sulfate (SAS) precipitation followed by dialysis against PBS. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | Activin A Receptor Type IC (ACVR1C) Antibody (N-term A48) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | ACVR1C (HGNC:18123) |
---|---|
Function | Serine/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. |
Cellular Location | Membrane; Single- pass type I membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Present 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. |

Background
ACVR1C, a serine/threonine protein kinase, is a type I receptor for the TGFB family of signaling molecules. 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, which then translocate to the nucleus and interact directly with DNA or in complex with other transcription factors. ACVR1C is a receptor for activin AB, activin B and NODAL. This protein plays a role in cell differentiation, growth arrest and apoptosis.
