Function
Non-selective calcium permeant cation channel. It is activated by innocuous (warm) temperatures and shows an increased response at noxious temperatures greater than 39 degrees Celsius. Activation exhibits an outward rectification.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cell membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein); Cytoplasm; Lysosome
Tissue Specificity: Abundantly expressed in CNS. Widely expressed at low levels. Detected in dorsal root ganglion (at protein level). Expressed in the keratinocyte layers of the outer root sheath and, to lesser extent, to the matrix of the hair follicles (at protein level)
Disease Association: Olmsted syndrome 1 (OLMS1) : An autosomal dominant, rare congenital disorder characterized by bilateral mutilating palmoplantar keratoderma and periorificial keratotic plaques with severe itching at all lesions. Diffuse alopecia, constriction of digits, and onychodystrophy have also been reported. Infections and squamous cell carcinomas can arise on the keratotic areas. The digital constriction may progress to autoamputation of fingers and toes. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry] | Palmoplantar keratoderma, non-epidermolytic, focal 2 (FNEPPK2) : A dermatological disorder characterized by non-epidermolytic, abnormal thickening of the skin on the palms and soles. Focal palmoplantar keratoderma consists of localized areas of hyperkeratosis located mainly on pressure points and sites of recurrent friction.
