Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-u03b2) is a multifunctional cytokine belonging to the transforming growth factor superfamily that includes four different isoforms (TGF-u03b2 1 to 4) and many other signaling proteins produced by all white blood cell lineages. Activated TGF-u03b2 complexes with other factors to form a serine/threonine kinase complex that binds to TGF-u03b2 receptors, which is composed of both type 1 and type 2 receptor subunits. After the binding of TGF-u03b2, the type 2 receptor kinase phosphorylates and activates the type 1 receptor kinase that activates a signaling cascade. This leads to the activation of different downstream substrates and regulatory proteins, inducing transcription of different target genes that function in differentiation, chemotaxis, proliferation, and activation of many immune cells.<br>https://www.creative-diagnostics.com/tgf-beta-family.htm
