As inferred from mouse, Activin binds the Activin receptor composed of a type II receptor (ACVR2A/B) and a type I receptor, in this case ACVR1C (ALK7). It is unclear if the type II receptor and the type I receptor are associated before binding Activin, Activin AB (INHBA:INHBB) and Activin B (INHBB:INHBB), but not Activin A (INHBA:INHBA) can bind and signal via an activin receptor containing the ACVR1C (ALK7) type I receptor.
