Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** PFDN4 is a subunit of the prefoldin complex, a heterohexameric protein complex composed of six subunits, each with distinct functions. PFDN4 is a small protein with a molecular weight of approximately 10 kDa. It is highly conserved across species, suggesting its essential role in maintaining protein homeostasis. PFDN4 is also known to interact with other proteins, including chaperone-mediated protein folding proteins, such as TRIC/CCT, to facilitate protein folding. **Pathways and Functions:** PFDN4 is involved in various cellular pathways, including: 1. **Chaperone-mediated protein folding**: PFDN4 plays a crucial role in the chaperone-mediated protein folding pathway, where it interacts with TRIC/CCT to facilitate the folding of actin and tubulin proteins. 2. **Amyloid regulation**: PFDN4 is involved in the negative regulation of amyloid fibril formation, suggesting its potential role in the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. 3. **Metabolism of proteins**: PFDN4 is also involved in the metabolism of proteins, including the folding and degradation of misfolded proteins. 4. **Cooperation with prefoldin and TRIC/CCT**: PFDN4 cooperates with prefoldin and TRIC/CCT to facilitate the folding of actin and tubulin proteins. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of PFDN4 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Neurodegenerative diseases**: Mutations in PFDN4 have been associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). 2. **Muscular dystrophy**: PFDN4 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophy, a group of genetic disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness and degeneration. 3. **Cancer**: PFDN4 has been found to be overexpressed in various types of cancer, suggesting its potential role in cancer development and progression. In conclusion, PFDN4 is a crucial component of the prefoldin complex, essential for maintaining protein homeostasis and preventing amyloid formation. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the need for further research into the molecular mechanisms underlying these disorders.
