PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	N-terminal actin-binding domain,
	two CH (calponin-homology) domains
	17 spectrin repeats
	a PH (pleckstrin homology) domain
	C-terminal domain crucial for KCNQ2 aggregation and excitability at nodes of Ranvier , containing a conserved motif harboring high homology to the autoregulatory domain of CAMK2A, a site necessary for CAMK2A intramolecular interaction

HOMOLOGY

interspecies	homolog to rattus Spnb4 (94.9 pc)
	homolog to murine Spnb4 (95.8 pc)

Homologene

FAMILY	spectrin family
	beta subfamily

CATEGORY

structural protein

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane,junction,adherens
	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytoskeleton
	intracellular,nucleus,nucleoplasm,nuclear bodies,PML
text	PML body
	nuclear matrix
	cytoskeletal anchoring at plasma membrane

basic FUNCTION	being a structural constituent of cytoskeleton
	involved in the barbed-end actin filament capping
	regulates sodium channel clustering through ankyrin-G at axon initial segments and nodes of Ranvier
	broader role for SPTB4 in regulation of cell membrane excitability in the pancreatic islet
	role of SPTBN4 in the expression, targeting, and regulation of critical membrane and signaling proteins in islets

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

text	vesicle-mediated transport

PATHWAY

metabolism

a component

essential component of the membrane skeleton

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	binding to actin
	binding to ankyrin
	is recruited to axon initial segments and nodes of Ranvier by ANK3
	directly associates with ankyrin-B and CAMK2A
	directly associates with and targets CAMK2A in pancreatic islets
	SPTBN4–targeted CAMK2A directly phosphorylates the inwardly-rectifying potassium channel, KCNJ11
	SPTBN4/CAMK2D interaction in pancreatic islets via a C-terminal domain in SPTBN4
	is required for CAMK2D, ANK2, KCNJ11, and ABCC8 expression in beta cells
