Mus musculus PHENOTYPE: Nullizygous mice lack Birbeck granules with no marked loss of Langerhans cell (LC) function. Knock-in mice expressing diphtheria toxin (DT) receptors show LC depletion. Heterozygotes for a knock-in allele show DT-induced LC ablation, altered contact hypersensitivity and susceptibility to infection. [provided by MGI curators]

Homo sapiens Diphthamide is a unique posttranslationally modified histidine found only in translation elongation factor-2 (EEF2; MIM 130610). This modification is conserved from archaebacteria to humans and serves as the target for ADP-ribosylation and inactivation of EEF2 by diphtheria toxin (DT) and Pseudomonas exotoxin A. DPH4 is 1 of several enzymes involved in synthesis of diphthamide in EEF2 (Liu et al., 2004 [PubMed 15485916]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
