Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** DCTN4 is a cytoplasmic protein that belongs to the dynactin family, which is composed of six subunits. The dynactin complex is responsible for the formation of microtubule-associated motor proteins, enabling the movement of vesicles, organelles, and chromosomes along microtubules. DCTN4 is the largest subunit of the dynactin complex and interacts with dynein, a minus-end-directed motor protein, to facilitate the movement of cargo along microtubules. **Pathways and Functions:** DCTN4 is involved in various cellular processes, including: 1. **Cell Motility:** DCTN4 plays a crucial role in regulating cell motility by interacting with dynein to facilitate the movement of vesicles and organelles along microtubules. 2. **Protein Trafficking:** DCTN4 is involved in the regulation of protein trafficking, including the transport of proteins to the Golgi apparatus and subsequent modification. 3. **Cell Division:** DCTN4 is required for proper chromosome segregation during cell division, ensuring accurate chromosome alignment and separation. 4. **Adaptive Immune Response:** DCTN4 has been implicated in the regulation of immune cell migration and function, including the trafficking of T cells and dendritic cells. **Clinical Significance:** DCTN4 has been associated with various immunological disorders, including: 1. **Autoimmune Diseases:** Abnormalities in DCTN4 expression have been linked to autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. 2. **Cancer:** DCTN4 has been shown to be overexpressed in certain types of cancer, including leukemia and lymphoma, suggesting its potential role in tumorigenesis. 3. **Neurological Disorders:** DCTN4 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. In conclusion, DCTN4 is a critical component of the dynactin complex, playing a key role in regulating cellular motility, protein trafficking, and cell division. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various immunological disorders, highlighting the need for further research into the molecular mechanisms underlying DCTN4 function and its potential therapeutic applications. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** Polychromatophilic erythroblast, hematopoietic oligopotent progenitor cell, smooth muscle fiber of ileum, mucosal type mast cell, peripheral blood mononuclear cell, ileal goblet cell, ciliated cell of the bronchus, orthochromatic erythroblast, CD8-alpha-beta-positive, alpha-beta intraepithelial T cell, CD8-positive, alpha-beta regulatory T cell. **Proteins:** DCTN4_HUMAN (Dynactin subunit 4), Q9NSJ5_HUMAN
