'''TGF-β receptors''' (Transforming Growth Factor) (TGFBR) are serine/threonine kinase receptors.  They are involved in paracrine signaling and are found in many types of tissue.  TGF-β ligands include bone morphogenetic proteins, growth and initiation factors, anti-Mullerian hormone, activin, nodal TGF-β<ref>PMID:21294712</ref>.  There are 3 types of TGFBR:    <br />

*'''TGFBR I''' forms heteromeric complex with TGFBR II when it is bound to TGF-β.  The complex transduces the TGF-β signal from the cell surface to the cytoplasm by phosphorylating proteins which regulate the transcription of genes related to cell proliferation.  TGFBR I has high affinity for TGF-β1 and low affinity for TGF-β2. <br />
