Gene: ASIC4

Alternate names for this Gene: ACCN4|BNAC4

Gene Summary: This gene belongs to the superfamily of acid-sensing ion channels, which are proton-gated, amiloride-sensitive sodium channels. These channels have been implicated in synaptic transmission, pain perception as well as mechanoperception. This gene is predominantly expressed in the pituitary gland, and was considered a candidate for paroxysmal dystonic choreoathetosis (PDC), a movement disorder, however, no correlation was found between mutations in this gene and PDC.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 2

Location in Chromosome : 2q35

Description of this Gene: acid sensing ion channel subunit family member 4

Type of Gene: protein-coding
