Target Details for TBC1D4

Target: TBC1D4 (TBC1 Domain Family, Member 4 (TBC1D4))

Alternative Name: TBC1D4

Background:

Background: AS160 (Akt substrate of 160 kDa), which was originally known asTBC1 domain family member 4 (TBC1D4),is a RabGTPase-activatingproteinthat in humans is encoded by theTBC1D4gene. This gene is a member of the Tre-2/BUB2/CDC16 domain family. This protein is thought to play an important role in glucose homeostasis by regulating the insulin-dependent trafficking of the glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), important for removing glucose from the bloodstream into skeletal muscle and fat tissues. Reduced expression of this gene results in an increase in GLUT4 levels at the plasma membrane, suggesting that this protein is important in intracellular retention of GLUT4 under basal conditions. When exposed to insulin, this protein is phosphorylated, dissociates from GLUT4 vesicles, resulting in increased GLUT4 at the cell surface, and enhanced glucose transport. Phosphorylation of this protein by AKT is required for proper translocation of GLUT4 to the cell surface. Individuals homozygous for a mutation in this gene are at higher risk for type 2 diabetes and have higher levels of circulating glucose and insulin levels after glucose ingestion.
