BMPR2
a serine/threonine-protein kinase receptor for bone morphogenetic protein (BMP). Binds to BMP-7, BMP-2 and, less efficiently, BMP-4. Binding is weak but enhanced by the presence of type I receptors for BMPs. On ligand binding, forms a receptor complex consisting of two type II and two type I transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind and activate SMAD transcriptional regulators. Defects in BMPR2 are the cause of primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH1), a weakly penetrant dominant disorder, associated with lesions in pulmonary arterioles, elevated pulmonary arterial pressure, and right ventricular failure.
