Description
Background: SLIT and NTRK-like family proteins 4 is a member of the SLIT and NTRK-like family.This protein is characterized as an integral membrane protein that has two leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains and a carboxy-terminal domain that is partially similar to SLIT protein andTRK Neurotrophin There are six members in this family: SLITRK1, SLITRK2, SLITRK3, SLITRK4, SLITRK5, and SLITRK6. Their expression was detected mainly in the brain, but the expression profile of each SLITRK was unique. Each of these members is located in nervous system except for SLITRK6. SLITRK expression was also investigated in various type s of brain tumor tissue.
Description: A DNA sequence encoding the human SLITRK4 (Q8IW52) (Met 1-Pro 616) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus
