Background: Uromodulin
Uromodulin (also Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein or THP) is an 85‑95 kDa urinary glycoprotein. It is secreted by renal tubule epithelium, acts as a binding protein for IL‑1, TNF-alpha and C1q, activates resting monocytes and promotes neutrophil phagocytosis. Uromodulin forms high molecular weight oligomers that line the kidnay tubules. Human Uromodulin is GPI‑linked. Its proprecursor is 616 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains three EGF-like domains (aa 28‑149), a ZP domain that mediates oligomerization (aa 334‑589) and a cleavable C‑terminal propeptide (aa 615‑640). There are multiple splice variants. One shows a deletion of aa 67‑199, a second shows a nine aa substitution for aa 609‑640, a third shows a Pro substitution for aa 205‑234 and a fourth shows a 66 aa substitution for aa 613‑640. Over aa 25‑614, human Uromodulin is 78% aa identical to mouse Uromodulin.
