MADR1 (SMAD1) is a downstream mediator of BMP2 receptor signaling: BMP2 (but not TGF-β or activin) rapidly induces SMAD1 phosphorylation, which is required for function (a point mutant that gives a null phenotype in Drosophila is not phosphorylated), and BMP2 treatment results in accumulation of SMAD1 in the nucleus. |

Crystal structure of the SMAD1 MH1 domain bound to a palindromic Smad binding element (SBE) reveals that the N-terminal helix 1 of SMAD1 is dislodged from its intramolecular binding site and adopts a domain-swapped arrangement compared to SMAD3, causing helix 2 to kink away and disabling key DNA backbone contacts; this confers lower overall DNA affinity but increased cooperativity on palindromic elements. |
