Gene information for ITPR3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3710
Official gene symbolITPR3
Full nameinositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor, type 3
Aliases,FLJ36205,IP3R,IP3R3,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a receptor for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, a second messenger that mediates the release of intracellular calcium. The receptor contains a calcium channel at the C-terminus and the ligand-binding site at the N-terminus. Knockout studies in mice suggest that type 2 and type 3 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors play a key role in exocrine secretion underlying energy metabolism and growth. [provided by RefSeq]
