Other Information

Description

**Key characteristics:** - BCRP4 is a pseudogene gene, meaning it is not a functional gene and does not produce a protein. - It is highly expressed in certain cell types, including plasma cells, oligodendrocytes, mast cells, astrocytes, club cells, monocytes, mesenchymal stem cells, neurons, pancreatic acinar cells, and unknown cell types. - The protein encoded by BCRP4 has not been identified yet. **Pathways and functions:** - BCRP4 is involved in inflammation and cell growth. - It is expressed in cells that are activated in inflammation, such as plasma cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. - BCRP4 is also expressed in cells that are undergoing cell growth, such as fibroblasts, stem cells, and cancer cells. - It is thought to play a role in the regulation of inflammation and cell growth by binding to DNA and regulating gene expression. **Clinical significance:** - BCRP4 has been implicated in a number of diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and inflammation. - Studies have shown that mutations in BCRP4 can lead to the development of cancer. - Researchers are currently investigating the role of BCRP4 in human health and disease.
