Protein Domain : IPR001839

Type:  Domain Name:  Transforming growth factor-beta, C-terminal
Description:  Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is a multifunctional peptide that controls proliferation, differentiation and other functions in many cell types. TGF-beta-1 is a peptide of 112 amino acid residues derived by proteolytic cleavage from the C-terminal of a precursor protein [].A number of proteins are known to be related to TGF-beta-1 [, ]. Proteins from the TGF-beta family are only active as homo- or heterodimer; the two chains being linked by a single disulphide bond. From X-ray studies of TGF-beta-2 [], it is known that all the other cysteines are involved in intrachain disulphide bonds. There are four disulphide bonds in the TGF-beta's and in inhibin beta chains, while the other members of this family lack the first bond.The regulatory cytokine TGFbeta exerts tumour-suppressive effects, but also modulates cell invasion and immune regulation []. Misregulation of the TGF-beta signalling pathway can result in tumour development. Short Name:  TGF-b_C
