Function
Receptor tyrosine kinase which binds membrane-bound ephrin family ligands residing on adjacent cells, leading to contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. The signaling pathway downstream of the receptor is referred to as forward signaling while the signaling pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand is referred to as reverse signaling. Highly promiscuous, it has the unique property among Eph receptors to bind and to be physiologically activated by both GPI-anchored ephrin-A and transmembrane ephrin-B ligands including EFNA1 and EFNB3. Upon activation by ephrin ligands, modulates cell morphology and integrin-dependent cell adhesion through regulation of the Rac, Rap and Rho GTPases activity. Plays an important role in the development of the nervous system controlling different steps of axonal guidance including the establishment of the corticospinal projections. May also control the segregation of motor and sensory axons during neuromuscular circuit development. In addition to its role in axonal guidance plays a role in synaptic plasticity. Activated by EFNA1 phosphorylates CDK5 at 'Tyr-15' which in turn phosphorylates NGEF regulating RHOA and dendritic spine morphogenesis. In the nervous system, also plays a role in repair after injury preventing axonal regeneration and in angiogenesis playing a role in central nervous system vascular formation. Additionally, its promiscuity makes it available to participate in a variety of cell-cell signaling regulating for instance the development of the thymic epithelium. During development of the cochlear organ of Corti, regulates pillar cell separation by forming a ternary complex with ADAM10 and CADH1 which facilitates the cleavage of CADH1 by ADAM10 and disruption of adherens junctions (By similarity). Phosphorylates CAPRIN1, promoting CAPRIN1-dependent formation of a membraneless compartment (By similarity).

Supplementary info
- This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.
- Activity summary
The Eph receptor A4 also known as SEK is a type of ephrin receptor that plays a significant role in cellular communication. It belongs to the Eph protein family and it is classified as a receptor tyrosine kinase. EphA4 has an approximate molecular mass of 110 kDa. It is mainly expressed in the nervous system although it can also be found in other tissues including the vascular and skeletal systems. This receptor has an important function in mediating signal transduction upon binding with their ephrin ligands.
- Biological function summary
EphA4 plays a critical role in developmental processes particularly in the development of the nervous system and vascular patterning. The receptor engages in bidirectional signaling meaning that signals are transmitted not only into the receptor-expressing cells but also into the ephrin-expressing ones. EphA4 is part of complexes that can include multiple receptor and ephrin molecules which allows for the modulation of cell adhesion and migration. These processes are essential for forming tissue boundaries and axon guidance.
- Pathways
EphA4 signaling is involved in two significant pathways: the Eph/ephrin signaling pathway and the cytoskeletal remodeling pathway. In the Eph/ephrin signaling pathway EphA4 interacts with various ephrin ligands leading to changes in cellular architecture and behavior. The cytoskeletal remodeling pathway involves interactions with proteins such as Rho and Ras which coordinate cytoskeletal changes necessary for cell movement and positioning. These pathways are integral to processes like axon guidance and cell migration underpinning EphA4’s role in development.
- Associated diseases and disorders
EphA4 has been implicated in conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and cancer metastasis. In the context of ALS EphA4's interaction with proteins like RhoA affects axonal repair and neuron survival contributing to the disease's progression. Regarding cancer EphA4 influences tumor growth and spread with its signaling pathways impacting cellular invasion and angiogenesis. Understanding these aspects of EphA4 activity assists in developing therapeutic strategies for these disorders.
