Smad3 (also known as Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 3, Mothers against DPP homolog 3, Mad3, hMAD-3, JV15-2 or hSMAD3) is a transcriptional modulator activated by TGF-b(transforming growth factor) and activin type 1 receptor kinase.
These activators exert diverse effects on a wide array of cellular processes.
The Smad proteins mediate much of the signaling responses induced by the TGF-b superfamily.
Activated type I receptor phosphorylates receptor-activated Smads (R-Smads) at their C-terminal two extreme serines in the S-S-X-S motif, e.g.
Smad2 and Smad3 proteins in the TGF-b pathway, or Smad1, Smad5 or Smad8 in the bone morphogenic protein or BMP pathway.
The phosphorylated R-Smads are translocated into nucleus, where they regulate transcription of target genes.
Based on microarray and animal model experiments, Smad3 accounts for at least 80% of all TGF-b-mediated response.
