Trpm2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables ligand-gated calcium channel activity and manganese ion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including calcium ion transmembrane import into cytosol; cellular response to temperature stimulus; and dendritic cell chemotaxis. 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). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Trpm2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
