Repulsive guidance molecule A (RGMa) is a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) co-receptor of the repulsive guidance molecule family. Together with BMPR1A and BMPR1B, as well as ACVR2A and BMPR2, it binds BMPs thereby activating the intracellular SMAD1/5/8 signalling pathway.{{cite journal|last1=Corradini|first1=Elena|last2=Babitt|first2=Jodie L.|last3=Lin|first3=Herbert Y.|title=The RGM/DRAGON family of BMP co-receptors|journal=Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews|date=October 2009|volume=20|issue=5–6|pages=389–398|doi=10.1016/j.cytogfr.2009.10.008|pmid=19897400|pmc=3715994}} In humans this protein is encoded by the RGMA gene.{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: RGMA RGM domain family, member A| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=56963| accessdate = }}

Function

RGMa is a repulsive guidance molecule for retinal axons.{{cite journal |vauthors=Monnier PP, Sierra A, Macchi P, Deitinghoff L, Andersen JS, Mann M, Flad M, Hornberger MR, Stahl B, Bonhoeffer F, Mueller BK | title = RGM is a repulsive guidance molecule for retinal axons | journal = Nature | volume = 419 | issue = 6905 | pages = 392–5 |date=September 2002 | pmid = 12353034 | doi = 10.1038/nature01041 | bibcode = 2002Natur.419..392M | s2cid = 3234138 }} Furthermore, neogenin functions as a receptor for RGM.{{cite journal |vauthors=Rajagopalan S, Deitinghoff L, Davis D, Conrad S, Skutella T, Chedotal A, Mueller BK, Strittmatter SM | title = Neogenin mediates the action of repulsive guidance molecule | journal = Nat.

The apoptotic activity of neogenin in the neural tube is associated with cleavage of its cytoplasmic domain by caspases.{{cite journal |vauthors=Matsunaga E, Tauszig-Delamasure S, Monnier PP, Mueller BK, Strittmatter SM, Mehlen P, Chédotal A | title = RGM and its receptor neogenin regulate neuronal survival | journal = Nat.

RGMA belongs to a family of repulsive guidance molecules that are (glycosylphosphatidylinositol)-linked cell-membrane-associated proteins. The three proteins, RGMa (this protein), RGMb and RGMc are 40-50% identical to each other, and share similarities in predicted protein domains and overall structure. All three RGM proteins appear capable of binding selected BMPs (bone morphogenetic proteins).{{cite journal |vauthors=Severyn CJ, Shinde U, Rotwein P | title = Molecular biology, genetics and biochemistry of the repulsive guidance molecule family | journal = Biochem. J. | volume = 422 | issue = 3 | pages = 393–403 |date=September 2009 | pmid = 19698085 | doi = 10.1042/BJ20090978 | pmc = 4242795 }}

RGMs may play inhibitory roles in prostate cancer by suppressing cell growth, adhesion, migration and invasion. RGMs can coordinate Smad-dependent and Smad-independent signalling of BMPs in prostate cancer and breast cancer cells.{{cite journal |vauthors=Li J, Ye L, Sanders AJ, Jiang WG | title = Repulsive guidance molecule B (RGMB) plays negative roles in breast cancer by coordinating BMP signaling | journal = J Cell Biochem | volume = 113| issue = 7| pages = 2523–31|date=March 2012 | pmid = 22415859 | doi = 10.1002/jcb.24128 | s2cid = 35629616 }}{{cite journal |vauthors=Li J, Ye L, Kynaston HG, Jiang WG | title = Repulsive guidance molecules, novel bone morphogenetic protein co-receptors, are key regulators of the growth and aggressiveness of prostate cancer cells | journal = Int.
