Human TRPM3-Strep full length protein-synthetic nanodisc

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]. Human TRPM3-Strep full length protein-synthetic nanodisc. Protein function: Calcium channel mediating constitutive calcium ion entry. Its activity is increased by reduction in extracellular osmolarity, by store depletion and muscarinic receptor activation. In addition, forms heteromultimeric ion channels with TRPM1 which are permeable for calcium and zinc ions (PubMed:21278253). [The UniProt Consortium]
