UniProt Annotation
Function Ion channel gated by extracellular ATP involved in a variety of cellular responses, such as excitatory postsynaptic responses in sensory neurons, neuromuscular junctions (NMJ) formation, hearing, perception of taste and peristalsis. In the inner ear, regulates sound transduction and auditory neurotransmission, outer hair cell electromotility, inner ear gap junctions, and K(+) recycling. Mediates synaptic transmission between neurons and from neurons to smooth muscle. {ECO:0000269PubMed:23345450}.
Subcellular Localization Cell membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:23345450}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:23345450}. Note=Localizes to the apical membranes of hair cells in the organ of Corti.
Disease Associations Deafness, autosomal dominant, 41 (DFNA41) [MIM:608224]: A form of non-syndromic deafness characterized by onset of progressive sensorineural hearing loss usually in the second decade. The hearing loss is severe and ultimately affects all frequencies. Exposure to noise exacerbates the hearing loss, particularly at high frequencies. {ECO:0000269PubMed:23345450, ECO:0000269PubMed:24211385}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
