CPEB4 Gene Summary [Human]
Enables RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to glucose starvation; negative regulation of cytoplasmic translation; and response to ischemia. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Biomarker of liver cirrhosis; portal hypertension; and primary biliary cholangitis. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human CPEB4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
