Full name: mucolipin TRP cation channel 1b

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: mcoln1.2

Summary: Predicted to enable NAADP-sensitive calcium-release channel activity. Acts upstream of or within autophagy; neuromast hair cell development; and retina homeostasis. Located in late endosome and lysosome. Is expressed in several structures, including heart; nervous system; neural rod; otic vesicle; and pleuroperitoneal region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glycoproteinosis and mucolipidosis type IV. Orthologous to human MCOLN1 (mucolipin TRP cation channel 1).
