Background

PIWI-like protein 4 (PIWIL4) is a 97 kDa member of the argonaute family of proteins and the PIWI subfamily. Human PIWIL4 is 852 amino acids (aa) in length and contains one PAZ domain (aa 268-384) and one PIWI domain (aa 546-838). There are three isoforms for human PIWIL4. Isoform 1 is the standard protein. Isoform 2 has a two aa substitution for aa 1-29 in isoform 1 and a deletion of aa 523-852. Isoform 3 has a deletion of aa 1-69 and a deletion of aa 523-852. Human PIWIL4 shares 77% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat PIWIL4. PIWIL4 plays a central role in spermatogenesis.
