Smad ubiquitin regulatory factor (Smurf) 1 binds to receptor-regulated Smads (R-Smads) for bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), Smad1/5, and promotes their degradation. In addition, Smurf1 associates with transforming growth factor (TGF)-
type I receptor through the inhibitory Smad (I-Smad), Smad7, and induces their degradation. Here we examined whether Smurf1 negatively regulates BMP signaling together with the I-Smads, Smad6/7. Smurf1 and Smad6 cooperatively induced secondary axes in Xenopus embryos. Using a BMP-responsive promoter-reporter construct in mammalian cells, we found that Smurf1 cooperated with I-Smad in inhibiting BMP signaling, and that the inhibitory activity of Smurf1 was not necessarily correlated with its ability to bind to Smad1/5 directly. Smurf1 bound to BMP type I receptors via I-Smads, and induced ubiquitination and degradation of these receptors. Moreover, Smurf1 associated with Smad1/5 indirectly through I-Smads, and induced their ubiquitination and degradation. Smurf1 thus controls BMP signaling with and without I-Smads through multiple mechanisms.
