Background
TGFB1 is a member of the transforming growthfactor beta (TGFB) family of cytokines, which are multifunctionalpeptides that regulate proliferation, differentiation, adhesion,migration, and other functions in many cell types. Many cells haveTGFB receptors, and the protein positively and negatively regulatesmany other growth factors. The secreted protein is cleaved into alatency-associated peptide (LAP) and a mature TGFB1 peptide, and isfound in either a latent form composed of a TGFB1 homodimer, a LAPhomodimer, and a latent TGFB1-binding protein, or in an active formcomposed of a TGFB1 homodimer. The mature peptide may also formheterodimers with other TGFB family members. This gene isfrequently upregulated in tumor cells, and mutations in this generesult in Camurati-Engelmann disease.
