Background: HCA56 is a 584 amino acid peripheral membrane protein belonging to the ligatin family. Expressed during embryonic development and in early differentiated states, ligatin is a trafficking receptor for phosphoglycoproteins. Ligatin localizes to phosphoglycoproteins within endosomes and at the cell periphery where it participates in specific metabolic processes as well as intercellular adhesion. Involved in RNA binding and translation initiation through its single PUA domain and SUI1 domain, ligatin is down-regulated with long-lasting effects by the activation of Ca2+ dependent N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subclass of excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptors. Ligatin is considered a marker protein for membrane-vesicle transport systems. Ligatin exists as two alternatively splice variants and is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 1.
