Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nRecent studies have elucidated that RanBP3L functions as a nuclear export factor for BMP‐specific Smads (i.e., Smad1/5/8). RanBP3L directly recognizes dephosphorylated Smads and mediates their Ran-dependent export from the nucleus, thereby terminating BMP signaling. This regulation plays an important role in mesenchymal stem cell differentiation by limiting BMP-induced osteogenesis and favoring myogenic pathways."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn the context of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), high expression of RanBP3L has been correlated with a favorable prognosis.
