Accession
GO:0038102
Name
activin receptor antagonist activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
None
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Interacting with an activin receptor complex to reduce the action of another ligand, the agonist. A receptor antagonist does not initiate signaling upon binding to a receptor, but instead blocks an agonist from binding to the receptor. Source: GOC:signaling, PMID:15062104
Comment
This term refers to inhibition of a member of the activin receptor family; activin receptors bind to multiple ligands including activin and nodal.
