Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Kinesin family member 4A is aprotein that in humans is encoded by theKIF4A gene .[ 5] [ 6]
Kinesins , such as KIF4A, aremicrotubule -based motor proteins that generate directional movement along microtubules. They are involved in many crucial cellular processes, including cell division.[ 6]
KIF4A has been shown tointeract withHMG20B [ 7] DNMT3B .[ 8]
Clinical significance [ edit ] NTCP is the entry receptor for bothHepatitis B (HBV ) andHepatitis D viruses (HDV ).[ 9] HBV andHDV infection through its regulation of the retrograde transport ofNTCP from thecytoplasm to thecell surface where it acts as a receptor forHBV /HDV infection.[ 10]
