Gene Description

ABCC4 (MRP4) is a ubiquitously expressed, polytopic plasma-membrane ATP-binding cassette transporter of the ABCC/MRP subfamily. Using ATP binding and hydrolysis at its two nucleotide-binding domains, it catalyses primary active efflux of a broad range of organic anions out of cells. Physiological substrates include the cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP, prostaglandins (PGE1/PGE2), leukotrienes B4 and C4, urate, reduced glutathione and glutathione S-conjugates, bile acids (cotransported with GSH), and steroid glucuronides and sulfates; it also effluxes many drugs and their metabolites (antivirals, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate, cephalosporins, chemotherapeutics), contributing to multidrug resistance. Its subcellular polarity is tissue-dependent, residing in the apical membrane of kidney proximal tubule and the basolateral (sinusoidal) membrane of hepatocytes, and it is present at blood-tissue barriers (blood-brain, blood-CSF, blood-testis) and in platelet dense-granule membranes, where it loads cyclic nucleotides. A C-terminal PDZ-binding motif recruits PDZ-domain scaffolds (e.g. SNX27, PDZK1, NHERF, MPP1) that govern its membrane localization and turnover. By exporting signalling molecules such as cyclic nucleotides and prostaglandins, ABCC4 influences processes including platelet mediator storage, cyclic-nucleotide signalling and prostaglandin-dependent ciliogenesis.

ACCEPT
Summary: MRP4/ABCC4 mediates ATP-dependent efflux of the cyclic guanine nucleotide cGMP (a guanine nucleotide), shown directly in overexpressing vesicles (PMID:15454390).
Reason: cGMP is a (cyclic) guanine nucleotide; ATP-dependent cGMP transport is directly demonstrated, so guanine-nucleotide transporter activity is a correct, core molecular function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:15454390
MRP4 could transport urate simultaneously with cAMP or cGMP
GO:0002576 platelet degranulation
TAS
Reactome:R-HSA-114608
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Platelet degranulation: MRP4 in platelet dense-granule membranes loads cyclic nucleotides/nucleotides, contributing to mediator storage and release (PMID:15297306; Reactome).
Reason: Genuine platelet-specific physiological role downstream of MRP4's nucleotide-transport activity, but peripheral to the core transporter function; retained as non-core.

Summary: IPI interaction of MRP4 with UniProtKB:Q96L92 (UniProtKB:Q96L92); like MRP4's other characterized partners this is a PDZ-domain-containing protein that engages MRP4's C-terminal PDZ-binding motif.
Reason: Bare 'protein binding' is uninformative. MRP4 carries a C-terminal class-I PDZ-binding motif (UniProt MOTIF 1322-1325; SUBUNIT: 'Interacts (via PDZ-binding motif) with SNX27 (via PDZ domain)'). The interaction with the PDZ scaffold SNX27 (UniProtKB:Q96L92) is experimentally characterized and mediates MRP4 internalization and turnover, so the evidence supports the specific molecular function PDZ domain binding (GO:0030165).

Reason: Bare 'protein binding' is uninformative. The supporting evidence is an in-vitro screen of isolated PDZ domains against C-terminal peptide ligands, detecting binding between MRP4's C-terminal class-I PDZ-binding motif and the PDZ domain of UniProtKB:Q14160. This supports the more precise molecular function PDZ domain binding (GO:0030165). The evidence concerns isolated domains and short peptides in vitro and does not establish a role in MRP4 trafficking, turnover or localization.

Reason: Bare 'protein binding' is uninformative. MRP4's C-terminal class-I PDZ-binding motif (UniProt MOTIF 1322-1325) is engaged by the PDZ-domain scaffold MPP1 (UniProtKB:Q00013); this characterized interaction organizes MRP4 membrane localization and turnover (modulating MRP4-mediated drug resistance), so the evidence supports the specific molecular function PDZ domain binding (GO:0030165).

Reason: Bare 'protein binding' is uninformative. This is a high-throughput AP-MS interactome hit (BioPlex) with no PDZ-specific statement in the source; the PDZ-domain-binding interpretation rests on UniProtKB:Q15599 being a PDZ-domain protein together with MRP4's C-terminal class-I PDZ-binding motif. On that basis the interaction is refined to the more precise molecular function PDZ domain binding (GO:0030165), with no trafficking, turnover or localization role asserted.

Summary: IPI interaction of MRP4 with UniProtKB:Q8N448 (UniProtKB:Q8N448); like MRP4's other characterized partners this is a PDZ-domain-containing protein that engages MRP4's C-terminal PDZ-binding motif.
Reason: Bare 'protein binding' is uninformative. The supporting evidence is a large-scale in-vitro holdup affinity map measuring binding between a short peptide of MRP4's C-terminal class-I PDZ-binding motif and the isolated PDZ domain of UniProtKB:Q8N448. This supports the more precise molecular function PDZ domain binding (GO:0030165). The evidence concerns isolated domains and short peptides in vitro, not an endogenous full-length complex, and does not establish a role in MRP4 trafficking, turnover or localization.

REMOVE
Summary: 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity, NAS from PMID:7557451 β€” a paper about the HPGD (15-PGDH) enzyme, not ABCC4.
Reason: ABCC4 is a polytopic ABC membrane transporter with ATP-driven efflux activity; it has no NAD(+)-dependent oxidoreductase/dehydrogenase domain and cannot perform 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenation. PMID:7557451 ('a C-terminal-truncated form of human NAD(+)-dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase') describes HPGD/15-PGDH, a soluble cytosolic enzyme. This NAS annotation is a gene/term mis-attribution and is biologically impossible for ABCC4; remove.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Cilium assembly (acts_upstream_of_or_within): ABCC4-mediated PGE2 export provides the extracellular PGE2 signal that promotes ciliogenesis via intraflagellar transport (PMID:25173977).
Reason: ABCC4 does not build the cilium; it acts upstream by exporting the PGE2 signalling molecule. Genuine regulatory role (zebrafish lkt/abcc4), but indirect and peripheral to the core transport MF. Retained as non-core, consistent with acts_upstream_of_or_within.

Surface biotinylation shows apical surface exposure but does not support an 'external side' localization; the apical plasma-membrane location (GO:0016324) already captures this correctly.
