General annotation (Comments)

Function

Direct ligand for the ERBB4 tyrosine kinase receptor. Binding results in ligand-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of the receptor. Does not bind to the EGF receptor, ERBB2 or ERBB3 receptors. May be a survival factor for oligodendrocytes. Ref.1 Ref.2

Subunit structure

Interacts with ERBB4. Ref.5

Subcellular location

Pro-neuregulin-3, membrane-bound isoform: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein By similarity. Note: Does not seem to be active By similarity. Ref.2

Neuregulin-3: Secreted By similarity Ref.2.

Isoform 3: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note: Isoform 3 is also proteolytically released as a soluble form. Ref.2

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in most regions of the brain with the exception of corpus callosum. Expressed at lower level in testis. Not detected in heart, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, spleen, thymus, prostate, ovary, small intestine, colon and peripheral blood leukocytes.

Developmental stage

Isoform 3 is expressed in fetal brain but not in other fetal tissues. Ref.2

Domain

The cytoplasmic domain may be involved in the regulation of trafficking and proteolytic processing. Regulation of the proteolytic processing involves initial intracellular domain dimerization By similarity.

ERBB receptor binding is elicited entirely by the EGF-like domain By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Proteolytic cleavage close to the plasma membrane on the external face leads to the release of the soluble growth factor form.

Extensive glycosylation precedes the proteolytic cleavage By similarity. Isoform 3 is glycosylated. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the neuregulin family.

Contains 1 EGF-like domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 4 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
