Related Product Information for
anti-FAT4 antibody
FAT1, FAT2, FAT3 and FAT4 are human homologs of Drosophila Fat, which is involved in tumor suppression and planar cell polarity (PCP). FAT4 undergo the first proteolytic cleavage by Furin and are predicted to undergo the second cleavage by g secretase to release intracellular domain (ICD). FAT4 directly interacts with MPDZ/MUPP1 to recruit membrane associated guanylate kinase MPP5/PALS1. FAT4 is involved in the maintenance of PCP and inhibition of cell proliferation.

NCBI Summary for FAT4
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the protocadherin family. This gene may play a role in regulating planar cell polarity (PCP). Studies in mice suggest that loss of PCP signaling may cause cystic kidney disease, and mutations in this gene have been associated with Van Maldergem Syndrome 2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
UniProt Comments for FAT4
FAT4: May function in the regulation of planar cell polarity. Cadherins are cell-cell interaction molecules. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Cell adhesion
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q28.1
Cellular Component: apical part of cell; integral to membrane; plasma membrane
Molecular Function: protein binding; calcium ion binding
Biological Process: heterophilic cell adhesion; heart morphogenesis; inner ear receptor stereocilium organization and biogenesis; gut development; plasma membrane organization and biogenesis; neurogenesis; ureteric bud branching; cerebral cortex development; homophilic cell adhesion
Disease: Van Maldergem Syndrome 2; Hennekam Lymphangiectasia-lymphedema Syndrome 2
Research Articles on FAT4
1. These findings suggest that Fat and Dachsous self-bend due to the loss of Ca(2+)-binding amino acids from specific EC-EC linkers, and can therefore adapt to confined spaces.
