Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** TGM4 is a ubiquitous gene, with significant expression in various cell types, including erythrocytes, megakaryocytes, goblet cells, intestinal crypt stem cells, and neurons. Its expression is also observed in neoplastic and abnormal cells, suggesting a potential role in tumor progression and disease. The TGM4 protein exhibits high sequence homology with other transglutaminases, indicating a conserved functional mechanism. **Pathways and Functions:** TGM4's involvement in various cellular and immunological pathways is multifaceted: 1. **Collagen Cross-Linking:** TGM4's primary function is to catalyze the cross-linking of collagen, a key component of the extracellular matrix. This process contributes to the structural integrity of tissues and influences cell adhesion, migration, and differentiation. 2. **Protein-Glutamine Gamma-Glutamyltransferase Activity:** TGM4's enzymatic activity involves the transfer of a gamma-glutamyl moiety from glutamine to a lysine residue, resulting in the formation of a covalent bond. This process regulates protein-protein interactions, modulating signaling pathways and cellular behavior. 3. **Exosome and Golgi Apparatus:** TGM4's expression in the Golgi apparatus and exosome suggests its involvement in protein trafficking and secretion, potentially influencing cellular communication and immune responses. **Clinical Significance:** TGM4's role in various diseases and disorders underscores its clinical significance: 1. **Autoimmune Disorders:** Altered TGM4 expression has been linked to autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, suggesting its potential as a biomarker or therapeutic target. 2. **Cancer Progression:** TGM4's involvement in tumor progression and metastasis highlights its potential as a therapeutic target for cancer treatment. 3. **Neurological Disorders:** TGM4's expression in neurons and its potential role in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, warrant further investigation. 4. **Gastrointestinal Disorders:** Abnormal TGM4 expression has been linked to gastrointestinal disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disease, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target. In conclusion, TGM4's multifaceted role in cellular and immunological processes underscores its importance as a therapeutic target and potential biomarker for various diseases. Further research is necessary to elucidate the mechanisms underlying TGM4's functions and to explore its therapeutic potential.
