ACCN4
Amiloride-sensitive cation channel 4 also known as amiloride-sensitive cation channel 4, neuronal (ACCN4) or amiloride-sensitive cation channel 4, pituitary or acid-sensing ion channel 4 (ASIC4) is a membrane protein that in humans is encoded by the ''ACCN4'' gene. The ASIC4 protein is a member of the acid-sensing ion channel family that is expressed in the pituitary gland and other parts of the brain. ASIC4 may have lost its ion transport function but play a regulatory role through interactions with other members of the family or other proteins.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=55515 )〕 == Function ==
This gene belongs to the superfamily of acid-sensing ion channels, which are proton-gated, amiloride-sensitive sodium channels. These channels have been implicated in synaptic transmission, pain perception as well as mechanoperception. This gene is predominantly expressed in the pituitary gland, and was considered a candidate for paroxysmal dystonic choreoathetosis (PDC), a movement disorder, however, no correlation was found between mutations in this gene and PDC.〔
