FER1L4
Description
The FER1L4 (fer-1 like family member 4 (pseudogene)) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 20.
FER1L4, also known as the FERM domain-containing protein 1-like 4, is a protein that is involved in the regulation of cell adhesion and migration. It is a scaffolding protein that interacts with various cellular components, including integrins, cytoskeletal proteins, and signaling molecules. Through these interactions, FER1L4 influences cell morphology, spreading, and motility, ultimately contributing to crucial cellular processes like wound healing and tissue development. Its dysregulation has been implicated in cancer progression and metastasis.
