Members of the Smad family of signal transduction molecules are components of a critical intracellular pathway that transmit TGF-beta signals from the cell surface into the nucleus.
Three distinct classes of Smads have been defined: the receptor-regulated Smads (R-Smads), which include Smad1, 2, 3, 5, and 8; the common-mediator Smad (co-Smad), Smad4; and the antagonistic or inhibitory Smads (I-Smads), Smad6 and 7 (1-5).
Activated type I receptors associate with specific R-Smads and phosphorylate them on a conserved carboxy-terminal SSXS motif.
The phosphorylated R-Smad dissociates from the receptor and forms a heteromeric complex with the co-Smad (Smad4), allowing translocation of the complex to the nucleus.
Once in the nucleus, Smads can target a variety of DNA binding proteins to regulate transcriptional responses (6-8).
