Summary: Enables BMP receptor activity and I-SMAD binding activity. Contributes to BMP binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; germ cell development; and imaginal disc morphogenesis. Acts upstream of with a positive effect on imaginal disc fusion, thorax closure. Located in endosome; plasma membrane; and presynapse. Part of BMP receptor complex. Colocalizes with cytoneme. Is expressed in several structures, including anlage in statu nascendi; epithelium; germ layer; gut section; and imaginal disc. Used to study juvenile polyposis syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in bone development disease (multiple); intestinal disease (multiple); and juvenile polyposis syndrome. Orthologous to several human genes including BMPR1B (bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 1B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

BMP type I receptor Thickveins (Tkv) internalization is facilitated by the Drosophila homolog of Nm23 (abnormal wing disks, AWD), which is upregulated in active intestinal stem cells (ISCs) by JNK signaling. The AWD-facilitated endocytosis of Tkv is critical for the return of ISCs to quiescence, to prevent epithelial dysplasia, and for host survival during acute intestinal infection.
Title: AWD regulates timed activation of BMP signaling in intestinal stem cells to maintain tissue homeostasis.
Gef26-Rap1 signaling pathway regulates both synaptic growth and neuronal survival by controlling BMP signaling.
Title: The Rap activator Gef26 regulates synaptic growth and neuronal survival via inhibition of BMP signaling.
Data (including data from studies using transgenic/knockout flies) suggest that nlg4 is different from nlg1-3 in that nlg4 presynaptically regulates neuromuscular junction synapse development; nlg4 appears to presynaptically regulate neuromuscular synaptic growth via BMP type I receptor signaling pathway by modulating tkv. (nlg = neuroligin; tkv = thickveins protein)
Title: Neuroligin 4 regulates synaptic growth via the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction.
Negative regulation of Tkv by Ube3a was conserved in mammalian cells. These results reveal a critical role for Ube3a in regulating NMJ synapse development by repressing BMP signaling. This study sheds new light onto the neuronal functions of UBE3A and provides novel perspectives for understanding the pathogenesis of UBE3A-associated disorders.
Title: Angelman Syndrome Protein Ube3a Regulates Synaptic Growth and Endocytosis by Inhibiting BMP Signaling in Drosophila.
Our data reveal that the basolateral determinant Scribbled (Scrib) is required for PCV formation through optimizing BMP signaling. Scrib regulates BMP-type I receptor Thickveins (Tkv) localization at the basolateral region of PCV cells and subsequently facilitates Tkv internalization to Rab5 endosomes, where Tkv is active
Title: Scribbled Optimizes BMP Signaling through Its Receptor Internalization to the Rab5 Endosome and Promote Robust Epithelial Morphogenesis.
Our results together demonstrate for the first time that S6KL regulates synaptic development and function by facilitating proteasomal degradation of the BMP receptor Tkv.
Title: Drosophila S6 Kinase like inhibits neuromuscular junction growth by downregulating the BMP receptor thickveins.
Thickveins (Tkv; a type I receptor of Dpp) is highly expressed in stromal cells next to Dpp-producing cells and functions to remove excess Dpp outside the stem cell niche.
Title: Wnt ligands regulate Tkv expression to constrain Dpp activity in the Drosophila ovarian stem cell niche.
BMP receptor is activated at adherens junctions in the Drosophila germline stem cell niche.
Title: Local BMP receptor activation at adherens junctions in the Drosophila germline stem cell niche.
Data show that the expression of tkv correlates with the spatial pattern of BMP signaling.
Title: BMP signaling dynamics in the follicle cells of multiple Drosophila species.
Heterodimers of SAX and TKV play an important role in extending the BMP activity gradient by facilitating DPP diffusion and assisting GBB signaling through functional complexes with type II receptors.
Title: The interaction between two TGF-beta type I receptors plays important roles in ligand binding, SMAD activation, and gradient formation.
