Additional Info
| Post Translational Modifications | N-glycosylated. N-glycan heterogeneity at Asn-232: Hex7HexNAc6 (major) and dHex1Hex7HexNAc6 (minor).at Asn-322: dHex1Hex6HexNAc5 (minor), dHex1Hex7HexNAc6 (major) and dHex1Hex8HexNAc7 (minor).at Asn-396: Hex6HexNAc5 (major), dHex1Hex6HexNAc5 (minor) and Hex7HexNAc6 (minor). Glycosylated Asn-232 interacts with E.coli adhesin fimH. Other complex glycosylation sites may serve as binding sites for proteins from other bacteria inclduding K.pneumoniae, P.aeruginosa and S.mitis. Proteolytically cleaved at a conserved C-terminal proteolytic cleavage site to generate the secreted form found in urine. This cleavage is catalyzed by HPN. |
| Function | Uromodulin: Functions in biogenesis and organization of the apical membrane of epithelial cells of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (TALH), where it promotes formation of complex filamentous gel-like structure that may play a role in the water barrier permeability (Probable). May serve as a receptor for binding and endocytosis of cytokines (IL-1, IL-2) and TNF. Facilitates neutrophil migration across renal epithelia. Uromodulin, secreted form: In the urine, may contribute to colloid osmotic pressure, retards passage of positively charged electrolytes, and inhibits formation of liquid containing supersaturated salts and subsequent formation of salt crystals. Protects against urinary tract infections by binding to type 1 fimbriated E.coli. Binds to bacterial adhesin fimH which mediates the stable formation of bacterial aggregates, prevents the binding of E.coli to uroplakins UPK1A and UPK1B which act as urothelial receptors for type I fimbriae, and allows for pathogen clearance through micturation. Also promotes aggregation of other bacteria including K.pneumoniae, P.aeruginosa and S.mitis and so may also protect against other uropathogens. |
