- Background
- Transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily C, member 7, also known as TRPC7, is a human gene encoding a protein of the same name. Using a cosmid/BAC contig, this gene is mapped to chromosome 21q22.3. TRPC7 is the most abundantly expressed long TRPC in peripheral blood and in some blood cell lines. The protein encoded by this gene is a calcium-permeable cation channel that is regulated by free intracellular ADP-ribose. The encoded protein is activated by oxidative stress and confers susceptibility to cell death.

- Function
- Thought to form a receptor-activated non-selective calcium permeant cation channel. Probably is operated by a phosphatidylinositol second messenger system activated by receptor tyrosine kinases or G-protein coupled receptors. Activated by diacylglycerol (DAG) (By similarity) . May also be activated by intracellular calcium store depletion. .
