PIWIL4 | LGR4 |
Plays a central role during spermatogenesis byrepressing transposable elements and preventing theirmobilization, which is essential for the germline integrity (Bysimilarity). Acts via the piRNA metabolic process, which mediatesthe repression of transposable elements during meiosis by formingcomplexes composed of piRNAs and Piwi proteins and governs themethylation and subsequent repression of transposons (Bysimilarity). Directly binds piRNAs, a class of 24 to 30 nucleotideRNAs that are generated by a Dicer-independent mechanism and areprimarily derived from transposons and other repeated sequenceelements (By similarity). Associates with secondary piRNAsantisense and PIWIL2/MILI is required for such association (Bysimilarity). The piRNA process acts upstream of known mediators ofDNA methylation (By similarity). Does not show endonucleaseactivity (By similarity). Plays a key role in the piRNAamplification loop, also named ping-pong amplification cycle, byacting as a 'slicer-incompetent' component that loads cleavedpiRNAs from the 'slicer-competent' component PIWIL2 and targetthem on genomic transposon loci in the nucleus (By similarity).May be involved in the chromatin-modifying pathway by inducing'Lys-9' methylation of histone H3 at some loci (PubMed:17544373).{ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CGT6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17544373}. | Receptor for R-spondins that potentiates the canonicalWnt signaling pathway and is involved in the formation of variousorgans. Upon binding to R-spondins (RSPO1, RSPO2, RSPO3 or RSPO4),associates with phosphorylated LRP6 and frizzled receptors thatare activated by extracellular Wnt receptors, triggering thecanonical Wnt signaling pathway to increase expression of targetgenes. In contrast to classical G-protein coupled receptors, doesnot activate heterotrimeric G-proteins to transduce the signal.Its function as activator of the Wnt signaling pathway is requiredfor the development of various organs, including liver, kidney,intestine, bone, reproductive tract and eye. May also act as areceptor for norrin (NDP), such results however require additionalconfirmation in vivo. Required during spermatogenesis to activatethe Wnt signaling pathway in peritubular myoid cells. Required forthe maintenance of intestinal stem cells and Paneth celldifferentiation in postnatal intestinal crypts. Acts as aregulator of bone formation and remodeling. Involved in kidneydevelopment; required for maintaining the ureteric bud in anundifferentiated state. Involved in the development of theanterior segment of the eye. Required during erythropoiesis. Alsoacts as a negative regulator of innate immunity by inhibitingTLR2/TLR4 associated pattern-recognition and proinflammatorycytokine production. Plays an important role in regulating thecircadian rhythms of plasma lipids, partially through regulatingthe rhythmic expression of MTTP (By similarity).{ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:A2ARI4, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21693646,ECO:0000269|PubMed:21727895, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21909076,ECO:0000269|PubMed:22815884, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23444378,ECO:0000269|PubMed:23756652}. |
