Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables ligand-gated calcium channel activity and manganese ion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including calcium ion transmembrane import into cytosol; calcium-mediated signaling using intracellular calcium source; and cellular response to temperature stimulus. Acts upstream of or within manganese ion transport and response to hydroperoxide. Located in cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; lysosomal membrane; and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; heart; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human TRPM2 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 2).
