| IGSF4C (Immunoglobulin Superfamily member 4C), also known as Nectin-like 4 (Necl-4) and TSLL2, is a 48-55kD type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of the nectin-like family of IGSF molecules. It is expressed in the brain, kidney, bladder and prostate. IGSF4C forms cis homophilic dimers on cell surfaces and mediates cell adhesion through homophilic trans-interactions in a Ca 2+/Mg 2+-independent manner. IGSF4C may also be a tumor-suppressor candidate in human prostate cancer. The mature 364 amino acid (aa) molecule contains a 299 aa extracellular domain (ECD) (aa 25-323) with three Ig-like motifs and a short cytoplasmic domain. There is at least one potential splice variant, which shows an insertion of 15 aa after Tyr309. |
