Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Structure:** VAMP4 is a small, membrane-associated protein with a molecular weight of approximately 18 kDa. It belongs to the VAMP family, characterized by its ability to form a SNARE complex with other proteins, such as SNAP-25 and syntaxin. 2. **Expression:** VAMP4 is expressed in a wide range of cells, including immune cells (e.g., CD4-positive T cells, CD45RO-positive T cells), neurons (e.g., L2/3-6 intratelencephalic projecting glutamatergic neurons), and epithelial cells (e.g., lens epithelial cells, corneal endothelial cells). 3. **Function:** VAMP4 is involved in various membrane trafficking events, including clathrin-mediated endocytosis, synaptic vesicle endocytosis, and retrograde transport. It facilitates the fusion of vesicles with target membranes, controlling the trafficking of proteins and lipids within cells. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Clathrin-mediated endocytosis:** VAMP4 plays a crucial role in regulating clathrin-mediated endocytosis, a process by which cells internalize proteins and lipids from the plasma membrane. 2. **Synaptic vesicle endocytosis:** VAMP4 is involved in the regulation of synaptic vesicle endocytosis, a process that controls the trafficking of neurotransmitters and other signaling molecules within neurons. 3. **Retrograde transport:** VAMP4 facilitates retrograde transport at the trans-Golgi network, a process that regulates the trafficking of proteins and lipids from the Golgi apparatus to the endoplasmic reticulum. 4. **Protein binding:** VAMP4 interacts with various proteins, including SNAP-25, syntaxin, and clathrin, to regulate membrane trafficking events. 5. **Regulation of synaptic vesicle endocytosis:** VAMP4 regulates the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane, controlling the trafficking of neurotransmitters and other signaling molecules within neurons. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of VAMP4 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Neurodegenerative disorders:** Alterations in VAMP4 expression have been linked to neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's disease. 2. **Immune-mediated disorders:** Dysregulation of VAMP4 has been implicated in immune-mediated disorders, such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. 3. **Cancer:** VAMP4 has been identified as a potential oncogene, with overexpression associated with cancer progression and metastasis. 4. **Neurodevelopmental disorders:** Alterations in VAMP4 expression have been linked to neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. In conclusion, VAMP4 plays a crucial role in regulating membrane trafficking events, including clathrin-mediated endocytosis, synaptic vesicle endocytosis, and retrograde transport. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of this protein in maintaining cellular homeostasis and immune response. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the role of VAMP4 in human disease and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target.
