About TRPM5

Cytogenetic location: 11p15.5 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:2,403,991-2,444,514 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Biased expression in duodenum (RPKM 1.1), testis (RPKM 1.1) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) protein family, which is a diverse group of proteins with structural features typical of ion channels. This protein plays an important role in taste transduction, and has characteristics of a calcium-activated, non-selective cation channel that carries Na+, K+, and Cs+ ions equally well, but not CA(2+) ions. It is activated by lower concentrations of intracellular CA(2+), and inhibited by higher concentrations. It is also a highly temperature-sensitive, heat activated channel showing a steep increase of inward currents at temperatures between 15 and 35 degrees Celsius. This gene is located within the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome critical region-1 on chromosome 11p15.5, and has been shown to be imprinted, with exclusive expression from the paternal allele.
