| Background Descriptions | HAPLN4 is a 360 amino acid protein encoded by the human gene HAPLN4. HAPLN4 belongs to the HAPLN family and contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain and two Link domains. HAPLN4 mediates the binding of complexes containing hyaluronic acid. HAPLN2 mediates a firm binding of versican V2 to hyaluronic acid. HAPLN4 is believed to play a pivotal role in the formation of the hyaluronan-associated matrix in the central nervous system (CNS), which facilitates neuronal conduction and general structural stabilization. HAPLN4 may also be involved in the formation of extracellular matrices contributing to perineuronal nets and facilitate the understanding of a functional role of these extracellular matrices. HAPLN4 is widely expressed with highest levels in spleen and placenta. |

| Synonyms | BRAL2, KIAA1926 |
| Function | Essential for the proper localization of brevican (BCAN), mainly as a perineuronal nets (PNNs)-type deposition in the brainstem and cerebellum thereby playing a key role in the formation and structural organization of PNNs (By similarity). Contributes to the formation and transmission of inhibitory GABAergic synapses between Purkinje cells and deep cerebellar nuclei neurons (By similarity). |

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
