Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Cellular localization:** PCP4 is primarily found in the cytoplasm, nucleus, and cytosol, suggesting its involvement in both nuclear and cytoplasmic processes. 2. **Protein binding:** PCP4 interacts with calmodulin, a calcium-binding protein, and other proteins, indicating a regulatory function in calcium-dependent signaling pathways. 3. **Neuron differentiation:** PCP4 is highly expressed in neurons, particularly in Purkinje cells, glycinergic neurons, and GABAergic amacrine cells, suggesting its role in regulating neuronal development and function. 4. **Thyroid follicular cell expression:** PCP4 is also expressed in thyroid follicular cells, which may indicate its involvement in thyroid function and regulation. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Calmodulin-dependent kinase signaling pathway:** PCP4 interacts with calmodulin, which is a key regulator of calcium-dependent signaling pathways. This interaction may modulate the activity of calmodulin-dependent kinases, influencing various cellular processes. 2. **Calcium ion binding:** PCP4's ability to bind calcium ions suggests its involvement in regulating calcium-dependent signaling pathways, which are crucial for cellular processes such as muscle contraction, neuronal transmission, and cell proliferation. 3. **Protein-containing complex formation:** PCP4's interaction with other proteins may form protein-containing complexes that regulate cellular processes, including protein degradation, cell signaling, and transcription. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Neurological disorders:** Alterations in PCP4 expression or function may contribute to neurological disorders, such as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease, where neuronal dysfunction and regulation are key pathophysiological features. 2. **Thyroid diseases:** PCP4's expression in thyroid follicular cells suggests its potential involvement in thyroid function and regulation. Abnormalities in PCP4 expression may contribute to thyroid disorders, such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. 3. **Cancer:** PCP4's role in regulating cellular signaling pathways and protein binding may also be relevant to cancer development and progression. Further studies are needed to elucidate the potential involvement of PCP4 in cancer. In conclusion, PCP4 is a multifunctional protein that plays a crucial role in regulating cellular processes, including calcium ion binding, calmodulin binding, and neuron differentiation. Its involvement in various cellular processes and disease implications highlight the need for further research on the functions and clinical significance of PCP4.
