TWSG1 Gene Summary [Human]
Enables transforming growth factor beta binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell proliferation; positive regulation of pathway-restricted SMAD protein phosphorylation; and transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human TWSG1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
