    RNA
    small molecule metal binding, nucleotide,
  • ATP
  • magnesium or manganese
  • protein
  • interacting with TGFBRAP1
  • binds to DAXX
  • receptor for TGF-beta
  • PPP2R2B protein interacts with the ACVRL1/TGFBR2/ENG complex and recruits PP2A to nitric oxide synthase 3 (NOS3)
  • AGTR2 regulates TGFBR2 expression and function via the nitric oxide pathway, which may be important in the control of renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis
  • SENP1 promotes sepsis via activating the TGFBR2 signaling
