| Function | Cell surface receptor that regulates diverse cellular processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and apoptosis. Initiates BMP, inhibin, and TGF-beta signaling pathways by interacting with different ligands including TGFB1, BMP2, BMP5, BMP7 or GDF5. Alternatively, acts as a cell surface coreceptor for BMP ligands, serving to enhance ligand binding by differentially regulating BMPR1A/ALK3 and BMPR1B/ALK6 receptor trafficking. Promotes epithelial cell adhesion, focal adhesion formation and integrin signaling during epithelial cell spreading on fibronectin. By interacting with the scaffolding protein beta-arrestin2/ARRB2, regulates migration or actin cytoskeleton and promotes the activation of CDC42 as well as the inhibition of NF-kappa-B. In gonadotrope cells, acts as an inhibin A coreceptor and regulates follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels and female fertility. Plays a role in the inhibition of directed and random cell migration in epithelial cells by altering the actin cytoskeletal organization. Participates in epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) upon binding to BMP2 or TGFB2, by activating the PAR6/SMURF1/RHOA pathway. (Microbial infection) May act as a receptor for human cytomegalovirus in different cell types by interacting with HCMV trimer composed of GO, GH and GL. |
