Background: Transglutaminase 4/TGM4

Transglutaminase 4, also known as TGM4, TG4, hTGP, or the prostate-specific transglutaminase, is a member of the transglutaminase family that is exclusively expressed and secreted from the prostate (1, 2). Transglutaminases catalyze the calcium-dependent formation of isopeptide bonds between lysine and glutamine residues (3). In rodents, TGM4 is responsible for the formation of the copulatory plug and sperm antigenicity, but the function in humans is largely unknown (4). The expression of TGM4 is primarily regulated by retinoic acid and secondarily modulated by androgens (5).
