Description

DPYSL4 (Dihydropyrimidinase Like 4), also known as CRMP3, encodes a member of the collapsin response mediator protein family. This protein is involved in neuronal development, axon guidance, and cytoskeletal dynamics. It is highly expressed in the brain and has been implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders and certain cancers.

Protein Summary

DPYSL4 is a 62 kDa cytoplasmic protein that belongs to the dihydropyrimidinase-related protein family. It interacts with tubulin and microtubules to regulate cytoskeletal dynamics during neuronal differentiation and axon outgrowth. Phosphorylation by kinases such as Rho-associated kinase modulates its activity.
