Name | NDRG4 |
---|---|
Synonyms | BDM1, KIAA1180 |
Function | Contributes to the maintenance of intracerebral BDNF levels within the normal range, which is necessary for the preservation of spatial learning and the resistance to neuronal cell death caused by ischemic stress (By similarity). May enhance growth factor-induced ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation, including that induced by PDGF and FGF. May attenuate NGF-promoted ELK1 phosphorylation in a microtubule-dependent manner. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytosol |
Tissue Location | Expressed predominantly in brain and heart (at protein level). In the brain, detected in astrocytes. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are only expressed in brain. Isoform 3 is expressed in both heart and brain. Up-regulated in glioblastoma multiforme cells |

Background
This gene is a member of the N-myc downregulated genefamily which belongs to the alpha/beta hydrolase superfamily. Theprotein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic protein that may beinvolved in the regulation of mitogenic signalling in vascularsmooth muscles cells. Several alternatively spliced transcriptvariants of this gene have been described, but the full-lengthnature of some of these variants has not been determined. [providedby RefSeq].
