Gene information for SMAD7 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4092
Official gene symbolSMAD7
Full nameSMAD family member 7
Aliases,CRCS3,FLJ16482,MADH7,MADH8,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear protein that binds the E3 ubiquitin ligase SMURF2. Upon binding, this complex translocates to the cytoplasm, where it interacts with TGF-beta receptor type-1 (TGFBR1), leading to the degradation of both the encoded protein and TGFBR1. Expression of this gene is induced by TGFBR1. Variations in this gene are a cause of susceptibility to colorectal cancer type 3 (CRCS3). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
