Description: |
This entry represents the SAM domain of EPH-A4. It is a C-terminal potential protein-protein interaction domain [].Ephrin receptors (Ephs) are a group of receptor tyrosine kinases that are activated in response to binding ephrin ligands residing on adjacent cells, leading to contact-dependent bidirectional signalling into neighbouring cells [].Ephrin type-A receptor 4 (EphA4) is highly promiscuou; it has the unique property among Eph receptors to bind and to be physiologically activated by both GPI-anchored ephrin-A and transmembrane ephrin-B ligands []. It is involved in development [, ], supporting spine maturation [, , ], axon guidance [, ]and assembly of neuronal locomotor circuits [, ]. EphA4 is the most abundant ephrin receptor in the nervous system. Mice lacking the EphA4 exhibit pronounced axonal regeneration and functional recovery following spinal cord injury [, , ]. In humans EphA4 has been proposed to be a key actor in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) []. Inhibition of the EphA4-ephrin interaction has been considered as a useful strategy for promoting axon regeneration in the nervous system and a pharmacological tool to treat neurodegenerative disease patients [, ]. EphA4 also plays a role in human cancers. Overexpression of EphA4 is observed in many human cancers []. For instance, overexpression of EphA4 is associated with gastric cancer invasion and recurrence []. Antagonising Eph-ephrin interactions by interfering with the Eph receptor/ephrin system has been suggested to be used in anti-angiogenic cancer therapies [, ]. EphA4 is also a potent negative regulator of osteoclastic activity []. |

Description: |
This entry represents the RhoGAP (GTPase-activator protein [GAP]for Rho-like small GTPases) domain of chimaerins.Chimaerin is a family of GTPase activating proteins for the small G-protein Rac. Chimaerin family members have been implicated in development, neuritogenesis and cancer []. Several isoforms have been found: alpha1-chimaerin (formerly known as n-chimaerin) and alpha2-chimaerin are alternatively spliced products of a single gene, as are beta1- and beta2-chimaerin []. Both alpha-chimaerin isoforms share identical diacylglycerol-binding (C1) and RacGAP domains. Alpha1- and beta1-chimerin have a relatively short N-terminal region that does not encode any recognizable domains, whereas alpha2- and beta2-chimerin both include a functional SH2 domain that can bind to phosphotyrosine motifs within receptors. It has been shown that alpha-chimaerins inactivate Rac and the alpha1-chimaerin isoform contributes to dendritic retraction events in cultured neurons. Alpha2-chimaerin is an effector for EphA4 in cortical and spinal motor circuits []. Beta2-Chimaerin mediates axonal pruning in the hippocampus []. |

Description: |
This entry represents the ligand-binding domain found in ephrin type-A receptor 4 (EphA4). A loss of EphA4, as well as EphB2, precedes memory decline in a murine model of Alzheimers disease []. EphA4 has been shown to have a negative effect on axon regeneration and functional restoration in corticospinal lesions and has been implicated in circadian sleep regulation [, ].Class EphA receptors bind GPI-anchored ephrin-A ligands. There are ten vertebrate EphA receptors (EphA1-10), which display promiscuous interactions with six ephrin-A ligands [, ]. Ephrin receptors (EphRs) comprise the largest subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). EphRs contain a ligand binding domain and two fibronectin repeats extracellularly, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. Binding of the ephrin ligand to EphR requires cell-cell contact since both are anchored to the plasma membrane. The resulting downstream signals occur bidirectionally in both EphR-expressing cells (forward signaling) and ephrin-expressing cells (reverse signaling) []. |
