TRPC3 transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C member 3

Gene ID: 7222, updated on 28-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TRP3; SCA41

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane protein that can form a non-selective channel permeable to calcium and other cations. The encoded protein appears to be induced to form channels by a receptor tyrosine kinase-activated phosphatidylinositol second messenger system and also by depletion of intracellular calcium stores. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
