PPFIA4 Products

PPFIA4, also referred to as Liprin-alpha-4, has a 701 amino acid long isoform that is approximately 78kDa and a slightly shorter 692 amino acid long isoform that is approximately 77kDa. PPFIA4 is a member of the LAR protein-tyrosine phosphatase-interacting protein (liprin) family, and is expressed in the skeletal muscle, heart, and brain. Liprin family members, such as PPFIA4, interact with the LAR family of transmembrane PTPs, which are essential players in mammary gland development and axon guidance. Research has shown that PPFIA4 could play a role in the disassembly of focal adhesions. Current research on PPFIA4 is being performed in relation to several diseases and disorders including hypoxia, hypertension, ataxia, and neuronitis. PPFIA4 has also been shown to interact with GIT1, NCOA2, ERC2, PLCG1, and AGTPBP1.
