Description: Homo sapiens transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily M, member 2 (TRPM2), transcript variant 1, mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_003307): The protein encoded by this gene forms a tetrameric cation channel that is permeable to calcium, sodium, and potassium and is regulated by free intracellular ADP-ribose. The encoded protein is activated by oxidative stress and confers susceptibility to cell death. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct protein isoforms. Additional transcript variants of this gene have been described, but their full-length nature is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]. Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg19 chr21:45,770,046-45,862,964 Size: 92,919 Total Exon Count: 33 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg19 chr21:45,773,584-45,861,700 Size: 88,117 Coding Exon Count: 32
ID:TRPM2_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 2; EC=3.6.1.13; AltName: Full=Estrogen-responsive element-associated gene 1 protein; AltName: Full=Long transient receptor potential channel 2; Short=LTrpC-2; Short=LTrpC2; AltName: Full=Transient receptor potential channel 7; Short=TrpC7; FUNCTION: Nonselective, voltage-independent cation channel mediating sodium and calcium ion influx in response to oxidative stress. Extracellular calcium passes through the channel and acts from the intracellular side as a positive regulator in channel activation. Activated by ADP-ribose, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)), reactive nitrogen species and arachidonic acid. Inactivated by intracellular ATP. Confers susceptibility to cell death following oxidative stress. Isoform 2 does not seem to be regulated by ADPR. Has ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase activity. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ADP-ribose + H(2)O = AMP + D-ribose 5- phosphate. BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Kinetic parameters: KM=100 uM for ADP-ribose; Vmax=0.1 umol/min/mg enzyme; SUBUNIT: Isoform 1 can interact with isoform 3. This interaction decreases calcium influx through isoform 1 and suppresses susceptibility to oxidative stress-induced cell death. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in brain and peripheral blood cells, such as neutrophils. Also detected in bone marrow, spleen, heart, liver and lung. Isoform 2 is found in neutrophil granulocytes. INDUCTION: NAD(+). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the transient receptor (TC 1.A.4) family. LTrpC subfamily. TRPM2 sub-subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 nudix hydrolase domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAB64300.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=1227, 1237; WEB RESOURCE: Name=NIEHS-SNPs; URL="http://egp.gs.washington.edu/data/trpm2/";

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
