Gene: TRPV5

Alternate names for this Gene: CAT2|ECAC1|OTRPC3

Gene Summary: This gene is a member of the transient receptor family and the TrpV subfamily. The calcium-selective channel encoded by this gene has 6 transmembrane-spanning domains, multiple potential phosphorylation sites, an N-linked glycosylation site, and 5 ANK repeats. This protein forms homotetramers or heterotetramers and is activated by a low internal calcium level.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7q34

Description of this Gene: transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 5

Type of Gene: protein-coding
