Synonyms | FKBP1, FKBP12 |
Function | Keeps in an inactive conformation TGFBR1, the TGF-beta type I serine/threonine kinase receptor, preventing TGF-beta receptor activation in absence of ligand. Recruits SMAD7 to ACVR1B which prevents the association of SMAD2 and SMAD3 with the activin receptor complex, thereby blocking the activin signal. May modulate the RYR1 calcium channel activity. PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. It catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides. |

Background
FKBP, or FK506 binding protein, is a family of proteins that have prolyl isomerase activity and are related to the cyclophilins in function (1). FKBP12, also called FKBP1, was originally identified as a target of FK506 and rapamycin activity and catalyzes the transition between cis and transproline residues critical for proper folding of proteins (2). FKBP12 is an abundant, evolutionarily conserved cytoplasmic protein that is an important regulator of diverse array of cellular processes including T cell activation, entry into the cell cycle and intracellular calcium release (3-5).
