Gene ID: 7225 | Gene type: protein coding

About TRPC6

Cytogenetic location: 11q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:101,451,564-101,584,007 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 264 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 7.7), lung (RPKM 7.3) and 18 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene forms a receptor-activated Calcium Channel in the cell membrane. The channel is activated by diacylglycerol and is thought to be under the control of a phosphatidylinositol second messenger system. Activation of this channel occurs independently of protein kinase C and is not triggered by low levels of intracellular calcium. Defects in this gene are a cause of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis 2 (FSGS2). [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
