BAMBI - BMP and activin membrane bound inhibitor Gene
Also Known as NMA
Species: Homo sapiens
About BAMBI
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 215 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in ovary (RPKM 40.8), adrenal (RPKM 26.5) and 15 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a Transmembrane Glycoprotein related to the type I receptors of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) family, whose members play important roles in signal transduction in many developmental and pathological processes. The encoded protein however is a pseudoreceptor, lacking an intracellular serine/threonine kinase domain required for signaling. Similar proteins in frog, mouse and zebrafish function as negative regulators of TGF-beta, which has led to the suggestion that the encoded protein may function to limit the signaling range of the TGF-beta family during early embryogenesis.
