Pkd1l3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables calcium-activated cation channel activity; pH-gated monoatomic ion channel activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Contributes to monoatomic cation channel activity and sour taste receptor activity. Involved in calcium ion transmembrane transport; cellular response to acidic pH; and detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of sour taste. Located in plasma membrane. Part of cation channel complex and receptor complex. Colocalizes with cell surface. Is expressed in circumvallate papillae; cochlea; foliate papillae; and testis. Orthologous to human PKD1L3 (polycystin 1 like 3, transient receptor potential channel interacting). [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 Pkd1l3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
