NCBI Summary for EPB41
The protein encoded by this gene, together with spectrin and actin, constitute the red cell membrane cytoskeletal network. This complex plays a critical role in erythrocyte shape and deformability. Mutations in this gene are associated with type 1 elliptocytosis (EL1). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
UniProt Comments for EPB41
Protein 4.1 is a major structural element of the erythrocyte membrane skeleton. It plays a key role in regulating membrane physical properties of mechanical stability and deformability by stabilizing spectrin-actin interaction. Recruits DLG1 to membranes. Required for dynein-dynactin complex and NUMA1 recruitment at the mitotic cell cortex during anaphase (PubMed:23870127).
Research Articles on EPB41
1. Using Next-Generation sequencing, we identified the causative genetic mutations in fifteen patients with clinically suspected hereditary elliptocytosis and hereditary pyropoikilocytosis and correlated the identified mutations with the clinical phenotype and ektacytometry profile.
