PKD2L1: Proteins and Enzymes

PKD2L1 encodes a member of the polycystin protein family. The encoded protein contains multiple transmembrane domains, and cytoplasmic N- and C-termini. The protein may be an integral membrane protein involved in cell-cell/matrix interactions. This protein functions as a calcium-regulated nonselective cation channel. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full length sequences have not been determined; FUNCTION: May function as a subunit of an ion channel and act as a ...
