Background Descriptions | C1QTNF4 is a 329 amino acid secreted protein that contains two C1q domains and may play a role in immune homeostasis and various other events throughout the cell. The gene encoding CTRP4 maps to human chromosome 11, which houses over 1,400 genes and comprises nearly 4% of the human genome. Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, Jacobsen syndrome, Niemann-Pick disease, hereditary angioedema and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome are associated with defects in genes that maps to chromosome 11. |

Synonyms | CTRP4 |
Function | May be involved in the regulation of the inflammatory network. Its role as pro- or anti-inflammatory seems to be context dependent (PubMed:21658842, PubMed:27086950). Seems to have some role in regulating food intake and energy balance when administered in the brain. This effect is sustained over a two-day period, and it is accompanied by decreased expression of orexigenic neuropeptides in the hypothalamus 3 hours post-injection (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Secreted. |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed at low levels (PubMed:21658842). Highest levels in adipocyte tissue and brain (PubMed:24366864) |
