SMAD family member 3 (SMAD3) is a gene that encodes a SMAD protein that functions as a signal transducer and transcriptional modulator. Missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, and frameshift insertions are observed in cancers such as genital tract cancer, intestinal cancer, and peritoneal cancer.

SMAD3 is altered in 0.93% of all cancers with colon adenocarcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, rectal adenocarcinoma, colorectal adenocarcinoma, and lung adenocarcinoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].
