Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channel Subfamily V Member 6
Definition 1
Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 6 (725 aa, ~83 kDa) is encoded by the human TRPV6 gene. This protein is involved in the mediation of calcium-dependent signaling that regulates both muscle contraction and neurotransmission. (NCI Thesaurus)
Definition 2
A protein found in cell membranes that moves calcium into cells. Levels of transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 6 are lower than normal in patients who don't have enough vitamin D. High levels of the protein may be found in breast cancer tissue. It is a type of calcium channel protein. (NCI Dictionary)
