background

Tim4 is a transmembrane protein as the phosphatidylserine (PS) receptor, known as T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain containing protein-4. It is expressed highly in macrophages, and macrophage Tim-4 inhibits inflammation under various conditions of immune activation.

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 32.43 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 78-98 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Function
Phosphatidylserine receptor that plays different role in immune response including phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and T-cell regulation. Controls T-cell activation in a bimodal fashion, decreasing the activation of naive T-cells by inducing cell cycle arrest, while increasing proliferation of activated T-cells by activating AKT1 and ERK1/2 phosphorylations and subsequent signaling pathways (By similarity). Also plays a role in efferocytosis which is the process by which apoptotic cells are removed by phagocytic cells (PubMed:32703939, PubMed:34067457). Mechanistically, promotes the engulfment of apoptotic cells or exogenous particles by securing them to phagocytes through direct binding to phosphatidylserine present on apoptotic cells, while other engulfment receptors such as MERTK efficiently recognize apoptotic cells and mediate their ingestion (PubMed:32640697). Additionally, promotes autophagy process by suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome activity via activation of LKB1/PRKAA1 pathway in a phosphatidylserine-dependent mechanism (By similarity).; (Microbial infection) Plays a positive role in exosome-mediated trafficking of HIV-1 virus and its entry into immune cells.
