Mucolipin-3 also known as TRPML3 (transient receptor potential cation channel, mucolipin subfamily, member 3) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MCOLN3 gene. [5] It is a member of the small family of the TRPML channels, a subgroup of the large protein family of TRP ion channels. [6]

Gene

In human, the MCOLN3 gene resides on the short arm of chromosome 1 at 1p22.3. The gene is split in 12 exons, which entail the open reading frame of 1659 nucleotides. The encoded protein, TRPML3, has 553 amino acid with a predicted molecular weight of ≈64 kDa. Computational analyses of the secondary structure predict the presence of six transmembrane domains, an ion transport motif (PF00520) and a transient receptor potential motif (PS50272). In the mouse, Mcoln3, is located on the distal end of chromosome 3 at cytogenetic band qH2. Human and mouse TRPML3 proteins share 91% sequence identity. [7] All vertebrate species, for which a genomic sequence is available, harbor the MCOLN3 gene. Homologs of MCOLN3 are also present in the genome of insects ( Drosophila melanogaster), nematodes ( Caenorhabditis elegans), sea urchin ( Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) and lower organisms including Hydra and Dictyostelium.

Expression

Function

TRPML3 is an inwardly-rectifying cation channel. [5]

Genetics
