Target Name
ULK4
Target Full Name
Serine/threonine-protein kinase ULK4
Target Function
May be involved in the remodeling of cytoskeletal components, such as alpha-tubulin, and in this way regulates neurite branching and elongation, as well as cell motility.
Target Involvement
Various anomalies in ULK4 gene have been reported for several cases of schizophrenia, schizophrenia plus bipolar disorder and autism. ULK4 gene has been proposed to be a rare susceptibility risk factor for a range of psychiatric diseases including schizophrenia.
Target Protein Families
Protein kinase superfamily, Ser/Thr protein kinase family, APG1/unc-51/ULK1 subfamily
Target Tissue Specificity
Expressed in the brain, mainly in postmitotic neurons, including GABAergic neurons, but not in astrocytes (at protein level).
Target Synonyms
DKFZp 434E1822; DKFZp434E1822; FAM 7 C 1; FAM7C1; FLJ 20574; FLJ20574; REC 01035; REC01035; Serine/threonine-protein kinase ULK4; ULK 4; ULK4; ULK4_HUMAN; Unc 51 like kinase 4; Unc 51 like kinase 4 (C. elegans); Unc-51-like kinase 4
Target Background
This gene encodes a member of the unc-51-like serine/threonine kinase (STK) family. Members of this protein family play a role in neuronal growth and endocytosis. The encoded protein is likely involved in neurite branching, neurite elongation and neuronal migration. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) indicate an association of variations in this gene with blood pressure and hypertension. Sequence variations in this gene may also be be associated with psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Pseudogenes associated with this gene have been identified and are located on chromosome 15.
