Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the four-transmembrane L6 superfamily. Members of this family function in various cellular processes including cell proliferation, motility, and adhesion via their interactions with integrins. In human brain tissue, this gene is expressed at high levels in the parietal lobe, occipital lobe, hippocampus, pons, white matter, corpus callosum, and cerebellum. Knockout of the homologous gene in mouse results in a neurobehavioral phenotype with suggested enhanced motor coordination. A deletion mutation in the human gene is associated with specific language impairment-5. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Ceramide inverts the membrane orientation of TMS4SF20, creating a form of TM4SF20 that stimulates the cleavage of CREB3L1.
Title: Inverting the Topology of a Transmembrane Protein by Regulating the Translocation of the First Transmembrane Helix.
TM4SF20 is the first protein shown to undergo Regulated Alternative Translocation in response to ceramide. In the absence of ceramide, the N terminus of the first transmembrane helix of TM4SF20 is inserted into the ER lumen. This form blocks activation of CREB3L1, a membrane-bound transcription factor. In the presence of ceramide, the membrane topology of TM4SF20 is inverted. The inverted form stimulates CREB3L1 cleavage.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
