Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - IGHG4 is a glycoprotein, consisting of a heavy chain (IgH4) and a light chain (IgL4). - It is a member of the immunoglobulin heavy chain family, which is responsible for antibody-mediated immune responses. - IGHG4 is expressed in high levels in plasmablast and memory B cells, where it plays a crucial role in antibody production and activation. - It is also expressed in other immune cells, such as enterocytes and dendritic cells, where it may contribute to immune surveillance and pathogen recognition. **Pathways and functions:** - IGHG4 is involved in the classical antibody-mediated complement activation pathway, a part of the innate immune response. - It binds to complement proteins, particularly C1q, C2, and C3, and facilitates their interaction and activation. - This leads to the formation of the C4 and C2 complement complexes, which are central mediators of the inflammatory response. - IGHG4 also plays a role in the regulation of actin dynamics, which is essential for the formation and function of immune complexes. - It is involved in the regulation of the complement cascade, a complex network of protein interactions that is triggered by pathogens and inflammation. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the IGHG4 gene have been linked to several autoimmune disorders, including systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease. - In these disorders, IGHG4 is expressed in excess, leading to the formation of excessive complement complexes and tissue damage. - Targeting IGHG4 has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy for these autoimmune diseases. **Additional notes:** - IGHG4 is a highly conserved protein, with a similar sequence in humans, mice, and rats. - It is a secreted protein, and its expression is regulated by various factors, including cytokines and hormones. - IGHG4 is a versatile protein with important roles in both innate and adaptive immune responses.
