Rabbit Anti-TRPM7/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
The protein encoded by this gene is both an ion channel and a serine/threonine protein kinase. The kinase activity is essential for the ion channel function, which serves to increase intracellular calcium levels and to help regulate magnesium ion homeostasis. Defects in this gene are a cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-parkinsonism/dementia complex of Guam.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010].
Function:
Essential ion channel and serine/threonine-protein kinase. Divalent cation channel permeable to calcium and magnesium. Has a central role in magnesium ion homeostasis and in the regulation of anoxic neuronal cell death. The kinase activity is essential for the channel function. May be involved in a fundamental process that adjusts plasma membrane divalent cation fluxes according to the metabolic state of the cell. Phosphorylates annexin A1 (ANXA1).
Subunit:
Homodimer. Interacts with PLCB1. Forms heterodimers with TRPM6.
Subcellular Location:
Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
Post-translational modifications:
Autophosphorylated (By similarity).
DISEASE:
Defects in TRPM7 are a cause of susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-parkinsonism/dementia complex type 1 (ALS-PDC1) [MIM:105500]; also called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-parkinsonism/dementia complex of Guam or Guam disease. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-parkinsonism/dementia complex type 1 is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by chronic, progressive and uniformly fatal amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and parkinsonism-dementia. Both diseases are known to occur in the same kindred, the same sibship and even the same individual.
Similarity:
In the SLCterminal section; belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Alpha-type protein kinase family. ALPK subfamily.
In the N-terminal section; belongs to the transient receptor (TC 1.A.4) family. LTrpC subfamily. TRPM7 sub-subfamily.
Contains 1 alpha-type protein kinase domain.
