The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SMAD
family of proteins, which are related to Drosophila 'mothers
against decapentaplegic' (Mad) and C. elegans Sma. SMAD proteins
are signal transducers and transcriptional modulators that mediate
multiple signaling pathways. This protein functions in the negative
regulation of BMP and TGF-beta/activin-signalling. Multiple
transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for
this gene.1) Ryan, J.D., et al. Hepatology 52(4):1266-1273(2010)
