E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase SMURF1

UniProtKB accession:  Q9HCE7

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that acts as a negative regulator of BMP signaling pathway. Mediates ubiquitination and degradation of SMAD1 and SMAD5, 2 receptor-regulated SMADs specific for the BMP pathway. Promotes ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of TRAF family members and RHOA. Promotes ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of MAVS (PubMed:23087404). Acts as an antagonist of TGF-beta signaling by ubiquitinating TGFBR1 and targeting it for degradation (PubMed:21791611). Plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes (PubMed:23999003).
