Itpr1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables several functions, including inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate binding activity; inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic cytosolic calcium levels; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including phospholipase C-activating G protein-coupled acetylcholine receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of insulin secretion; and protein homotetramerization. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including calcium ion transport; endoplasmic reticulum calcium ion homeostasis; and voluntary musculoskeletal movement. Located in endoplasmic reticulum; nucleus; and postsynaptic density. Part of calcineurin complex. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; brown fat; genitourinary system; heart; and hemolymphoid system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Gillespie syndrome; spinocerebellar ataxia type 15; and spinocerebellar ataxia type 29. Orthologous to human ITPR1 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 1). [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 Itpr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
