OLFM4
geneOn this page
Also known as OlfDGW112GC1pDP4
Summary
OLFM4 (olfactomedin 4, HGNC:17190) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 13q14.3, encoding Olfactomedin-4 (Q6UX06). May promote proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by favoring the transition from the S to G2/M phase.
This gene was originally cloned from human myeloblasts and found to be selectively expressed in inflammed colonic epithelium. This gene encodes a member of the olfactomedin family. The encoded protein is an antiapoptotic factor that promotes tumor growth and is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that facilitates cell adhesion.

Function. May promote proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by favoring the transition from the S to G2/M phase. In myeloid leukemic cell lines, inhibits cell growth and induces cell differentiation and apoptosis. May play a role in the inhibition of EIF4EBP1 phosphorylation/deactivation. Facilitates cell adhesion, most probably through interaction with cell surface lectins and cadherin.
Subunit / interactions. Homomultimer; disulfide-linked. Interacts with NDUFA13. Interacts with cell surface lectins (locutions ricinus communis agglutinin I, concanavalin-A and wheat germ agglutinin) and cadherin.
Subcellular location. Secreted. Extracellular space. Mitochondrion.
Tissue specificity. Expressed during myeloid lineage development. Much higher expression in bone marrow neutrophils than in peripheral blood neutrophils (at protein level). Strongly expressed in the prostate, small intestine and colon and moderately expressed in the bone marrow and stomach. Overexpressed in some pancreatic cancer tissues.
Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated.
Domain organisation. The olfactomedin-like domain is involved in the interaction with cadherin.
Induction. By retinoic acid. This induction requires functional NFKB pathway.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 50 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
