Additional Info
| Function | Pore-forming subunit of the mechanosensitive non-specific cation Piezo channel required for rapidly adapting mechanically activated (MA) currents and has a key role in sensing touch and tactile pain. Piezo channels are homotrimeric three-blade propeller-shaped structures that utilize a cap-motion and plug-and-latch mechanism to gate their ion-conducting pathways. Generates currents characterized by a linear current-voltage relationship that are sensitive to ruthenium red and gadolinium. Conductance to monovalent alkali ions is highest for K(+), intermediate for Na(+) and lowest for Li(+). Divalent ions except for Mn(2+) permeate the channel but more slowly than the monovalent ions and they also reduce K(+) currents. Plays a key role in epithelial cell adhesion by maintaining integrin activation through R-Ras recruitment to the ER, most probably in its activated state, and subsequent stimulation of calpain signaling. In inner ear hair cells, PIEZO1/2 subunits may constitute part of the mechanotransducer (MET) non-selective cation channel complex where they may act as pore-forming ion-conducting component in the complex. In the kidney, may contribute to the detection of intraluminal pressure changes and to urine flow sensing. Acts as a shear-stress sensor that promotes endothelial cell organization and alignment in the direction of blood flow through calpain activation. Plays a key role in blood vessel formation and vascular structure in both development and adult physiology. Acts as a sensor of phosphatidylserine (PS) flipping at the plasma membrane and governs morphogenesis of muscle cells. In myoblasts, flippase-mediated PS enrichment at the inner leaflet of plasma membrane triggers channel activation and Ca2+ influx followed by Rho GTPases signal transduction, leading to assembly of cortical actomyosin fibers and myotube formation. |
