ACVR1B

Activin receptor type-1B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ACVR1B gene. ACVRL1 and ACVR1B are eC 2.7.11, genes on human chromosome 12 and human proteins.

See ACVRL1 and ACVR1B

ACVR1C

The activin A receptor also known as ACVR1C or ALK-7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ACVR1C gene. ACVRL1 and ACVR1C are eC 2.7.11 and human proteins.

See ACVRL1 and ACVR1C

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) also known as ALK tyrosine kinase receptor or CD246 (cluster of differentiation 246) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ALK gene.

See ACVRL1 and Anaplastic lymphoma kinase

Arteriovenous malformation

An arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is an abnormal connection between arteries and veins, bypassing the capillary system.

See ACVRL1 and Arteriovenous malformation

Atherosclerosis

Atherosclerosis is a pattern of the disease arteriosclerosis, characterized by development of abnormalities called lesions in walls of arteries.

See ACVRL1 and Atherosclerosis

Enzyme

Enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts by accelerating chemical reactions.

See ACVRL1 and Enzyme

Gene

In biology, the word gene has two meanings.

See ACVRL1 and Gene

Germline mutation

A germline mutation, or germinal mutation, is any detectable variation within germ cells (cells that, when fully developed, become sperm and ova).

See ACVRL1 and Germline mutation

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), also known as Osler–Weber–Rendu disease and Osler–Weber–Rendu syndrome, is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder that leads to abnormal blood vessel formation in the skin, mucous membranes, and often in organs such as the lungs, liver, and brain.

See ACVRL1 and Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia

Low-density lipoprotein

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein that transport all fat molecules around the body in extracellular water.

See ACVRL1 and Low-density lipoprotein

Mosaic (genetics)

Mosaicism or genetic mosaicism is a condition in which a multicellular organism possesses more than one genetic line as the result of genetic mutation.

See ACVRL1 and Mosaic (genetics)

Pulmonary hypertension

Pulmonary hypertension (PH or PHTN) is a condition of increased blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs.

See ACVRL1 and Pulmonary hypertension

TGF beta receptor 1

Transforming growth factor beta receptor I (activin A receptor type II-like kinase, 53kDa) is a membrane-bound TGF beta receptor protein of the TGF-beta receptor family for the TGF beta superfamily of signaling ligands.

See ACVRL1 and TGF beta receptor 1

TGF beta signaling pathway

The transforming growth factor beta (TGFB) signaling pathway is involved in many cellular processes in both the adult organism and the developing embryo including cell growth, cell differentiation, cell migration, apoptosis, cellular homeostasis and other cellular functions.

See ACVRL1 and TGF beta signaling pathway
