Purkinje cell protein 4 (PCP4) is an anti-apoptotic, calmodulin-binding peptide which is expressed in neural cells. It is also expressed in the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum, kidneys, prostate and the uterus. PCP4 is a 7.6kDa with an IQ-motif. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 21q22.2.
Immunogen
PCP4 (NP_006189.2, 1 a.a. ~ 62 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
Purkinje cell protein 4 (PCP4) may have a role in apoptosis and cellular degeneration. It acts as an accelerator of calcium association and disassociation with calmodulin. The protein also functions in synaptic plasticity.
