KLHL4 - kelch like family member 4 Gene
Also Known as KHL4; DKELCHL
Species: Homo sapiens
About KLHL4
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues and 54 paralogues. Biased expression in adrenal (RPKM 14.7), testis (RPKM 4.7) and 4 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the kelch family of proteins, which are characterized by kelch repeat motifs and a POZ/BTB protein-binding domain. It is thought that kelch repeats are actin binding domains. However, the specific function of this protein has not been determined. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
