| Function | ATP-driven Ca(2+) ion pump involved in the maintenance of basal intracellular Ca(2+) levels in specialized cells of cerebellar circuit and vestibular and cochlear systems. Uses ATP as an energy source to transport cytosolic Ca(2+) ions across the plasma membrane to the extracellular compartment. Has fast activation and Ca(2+) clearance rate suited to control fast neuronal Ca(2+) dynamics. At parallel fiber to Purkinje neuron synapse, mediates presynaptic Ca(2+) efflux in response to climbing fiber-induced Ca(2+) rise. Provides for fast return of Ca(2+) concentrations back to their resting levels, ultimately contributing to long-term depression induction and motor learning. Plays an essential role in hearing and balance. In cochlear hair cells, shuttles Ca(2+) ions from stereocilia to the endolymph and dissipates Ca(2+) transients generated by the opening of the mechanoelectrical transduction channels. Regulates Ca(2+) levels in the vestibular system, where it contributes to the formation of otoconia. In non-excitable cells, regulates Ca(2+) signaling through spatial control of Ca(2+) ions extrusion and dissipation of Ca(2+) transients generated by store-operated channels. In lactating mammary gland, allows for the high content of Ca(2+) ions in the milk. |
