Recombinant Human Zinc finger FYVE domain-containing protein 9 (ZFYVE9), Truncated

Uniprot Id

O95405

Target Species

Human

Target Name

ZFYVE9

Target Full Name

Zinc finger FYVE domain-containing protein 9

Target Function

Early endosomal protein that functions to recruit SMAD2/SMAD3 to intracellular membranes and to the TGF-beta receptor. Plays a significant role in TGF-mediated signaling by regulating the subcellular location of SMAD2 and SMAD3 and modulating the transcriptional activity of the SMAD3/SMAD4 complex. Possibly associated with TGF-beta receptor internalization.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm. Early endosome membrane.

Target Tissue Specificity

Ubiquitous. In the brain found primarily in the cerebrovascular smooth muscle cells and reactive astrocytes.

Target Synonyms

Target Background

This gene encodes a double zinc finger motif-containing protein that participates in the transforming growth factor-beta (TGFB) signalling pathway. The encoded protein interacts directly with SMAD2 and SMAD3, and recruits SMAD2 to the TGFB receptor. There are multiple pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 2, 15, and X. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
