IDBG-39584 (LRRC4)

Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Synaptic adhesion protein. Regulates the formation of exitatory synapses through the recruitment of pre-and-postsynaptic proteins. Organize the lamina/pathway-specific differentiation of dendrites. Plays a important role for auditory synaptic responses. Involved in the suppression of glioma (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane {ECO:0000250}. Note=LRRC4 and DLG4 are interdependent for synaptic localization. {ECO:0000250}.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Specifically expressed in brain. {ECO:0000269PubMed:15967442}.
