ID:LRRC4_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 4; AltName: Full=Brain tumor-associated protein BAG; AltName: Full=Nasopharyngeal carcinoma-associated gene 14 protein; AltName: Full=Netrin-G2 ligand; Short=NGL-2; Flags: Precursor; 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). SUBUNIT: Interacts with NTNG2 (By similarity). Interacts with DLG4 (By similarity). Forms a complex with DLG4 and with NMDA receptors. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane (By similarity). Note=LRRC4 and DLG4 are interdependent for synaptic localization (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Specifically expressed in brain. DOMAIN: The last 4 C-terminal residues bind to the first 2 PDZ domains of DLG4 (By similarity). PTM: N-glycosylated (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Ig-like (immunoglobulin-like) domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 9 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 LRRCT domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 LRRNT domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
