Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Potent circulating inhibitor of angiogenesis. Signals through the type I activin receptor ACVRL1 but not other Alks. Signaling through SMAD1 in endothelial cells requires TGF-beta coreceptor endoglin/ENG. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18309101, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21710321, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22799562, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23300529, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25237187}. |
| Pathway | |
| Protein Families | TGF-beta family |
| Tissue Specificity | Detected in blood plasma (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21710321}. |
