Also known as KIAA1780SR-F3
Summary
MEGF10 (multiple EGF like domains 10, HGNC:29634) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 5q23.2, encoding Multiple epidermal growth factor-like domains protein 10 (Q96KG7). Membrane receptor involved in phagocytosis by macrophages and astrocytes of apoptotic cells.
This gene encodes a member of the multiple epidermal growth factor-like domains protein family. The encoded protein plays a role in cell adhesion, motility and proliferation, and is a critical mediator of apoptotic cell phagocytosis as well as amyloid-beta peptide uptake in the brain. Expression of this gene may be associated with schizophrenia, and mutations in this gene are a cause of early-onset myopathy, areflexia, respiratory distress, and dysphagia (EMARDD) as well as congenital myopathy with minicores. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene.

Function. Membrane receptor involved in phagocytosis by macrophages and astrocytes of apoptotic cells. Receptor for C1q, an eat-me signal, that binds phosphatidylserine expressed on the surface of apoptotic cells. Cooperates with ABCA1 within the process of engulfment. Promotes the formation of large intracellular vacuoles and may be responsible for the uptake of amyloid-beta peptides. Necessary for astrocyte-dependent apoptotic neuron clearance in the developing cerebellum. Plays role in muscle cell proliferation, adhesion and motility. Is also an essential factor in the regulation of myogenesis. Controls the balance between skeletal muscle satellite cells proliferation and differentiation through regulation of the notch signaling pathway (PubMed:28498977, Ref.16). May also function in the mosaic spacing of specific neuron subtypes in the retina through homotypic retinal neuron repulsion. Mosaics provide a mechanism to distribute each cell type evenly across the retina, ensuring that all parts of the visual field have access to a full set of processing elements.
Subunit / interactions. Homomer. Interacts with GULP1 and ABCA1. Interacts with AP2M1. Does not interact with MEGF11. Binds with high affinity to complement C1q. Interacts (via the cytoplasmic domain) with NOTCH1 (via NICD domain).
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Cell projection. Phagocytic cup.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in muscle (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated on tyrosine residues. Phosphorylation at Tyr-1030 may be important for muscle cell proliferation. Ubiquitinated; mono- and polyubiquitinated forms are detected.
Disease relevance. Congenital myopathy 10A, severe variant (CMYO10A) [MIM:614399] An autosomal recessive congenital myopathy characterized by onset at birth, or early in infancy, of respiratory distress caused by diaphragmatic weakness. Additional features are dysphagia resulting in poor feeding, failure to thrive, poor head control, facial weakness, cleft palate, contractures and scoliosis. Affected individuals become ventilator-dependent, and most require feeding by gastrostomy. The disorder results in severe muscle weakness and most patients never achieve walking. Death from respiratory failure in childhood occurs in about half of patients. Muscle biopsies from affected individuals show myopathic changes, replacement of myofibers with fatty tissue, small and incompletely fused muscle fibers, and variation in fiber size. Short regions of sarcomeric disorganization with few or no mitochondria (minicores) have been observed in some cases. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Congenital myopathy 10B, mild variant (CMYO10B) [MIM:620249] An autosomal recessive skeletal muscle disorder characterized by infantile or childhood onset of proximal and distal weakness of upper and lower limbs, facial weakness, areflexia, dysphagia, and respiratory distress. Muscle biopsy shows myopathic changes including type 1 fiber predominance, minicore lesions, and myofibrillar disorganization. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. The EMI and EGF-like domains work in concert to promote self-assembly.
Similarity. Belongs to the MEGF family.
