JIP4 The JNK-interacting protein (JIP) group of scaffold proteins selectively mediates JNK signaling by aggregating specific components of the MAPK cascade to form a functional JNK signaling module. Isoform 5 may play a role in spermatozoa-egg-interaction. Regulates lysosomal positioning by acting as an adapter protein which links PIP4P1-positive lysosomes to the dynein-dynactin complex. Belongs to the JIP scaffold family. Isoform 5 is expressed only in testis on the round spermatids of stage I, II and II. Isoform 5 is absent in spermatogonia and spermatocyte. Isoform 3 is expressed in testis. Isoform 4 is expressed in testis and in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. 6 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported.
