Summary: Enables identical protein binding activity and intracellularly calcium-gated chloride channel activity. Acts upstream of or within chloride transport and establishment of localization in cell. Located in neuron projection; non-motile cilium; and plasma membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in dorsal root ganglion; epidermis; medulla oblongata basal plate mantle layer; olfactory epithelium; and spinal cord mantle layer. Orthologous to human ANO2 (anoctamin 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
