TRPM3 transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 3

Gene ID: 80036, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: GON-2; MLSN2; LTRPC3; NEDFSS; CTRCT50

Summary

The product of this gene belongs to the family of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. TRP channels are cation-selective channels important for cellular calcium signaling and homeostasis. The protein encoded by this gene mediates calcium entry, and this entry is potentiated by calcium store depletion. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
