Immunogens

Immunogen:

A synthetic peptide from human PVRL4

Uniprot:
Gene(ID):
Expression:
Q96NY8 NECT4_HUMAN:

Predominantly expressed in placenta. Not detected in normal breast epithelium but expressed in breast carcinoma.

Description:
This gene encodes a member of the nectin family. The encoded protein contains two immunoglobulin-like (Ig-like) C2-type domains and one Ig-like V-type domain. It is involved in cell adhesion through trans-homophilic and -heterophilic interactions. It is a single-pass type I membrane protein. The soluble form is produced by proteolytic cleavage at the cell surface by the metalloproteinase ADAM17,TACE. The secreted form is found in both breast tumor cell lines and breast tumor patients. Mutations in this gene are the cause of ectodermal dysplasia-syndactyly syndrome type 1,an autosomal recessive disorder. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found but the full-length nature of the variant has not been determined.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Seems to be involved in cell adhesion through trans-homophilic and -heterophilic interactions, the latter including specifically interactions with NECTIN1. Does not act as receptor for alpha-herpesvirus entry into cells.

(Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for measles virus.

PTMs:

The soluble form is produced by proteolytic cleavage at the cell surface (shedding), probably by ADAM17/TACE.

Subcellular Location:

Cell membrane>Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell junction>Adherens junction.
Note: Colocalizes with AFDN at cadherin-based adherens junctions (PubMed:11544254).

Secreted.
Note: The secreted form is found in breast tumor patients (PubMed:15784625).
