General annotation (Comments)

Function

Non-selective calcium permeant cation channel probably involved in osmotic sensitivity and mechanosensitivity. Activation by exposure to hypotonicity within the physiological range exhibits an outward rectification. Also activated by low pH, citrate and phorbol esters. Increase of intracellular Ca2+ potentiates currents. Channel activity seems to be regulated by a calmodulin-dependent mechanism with a negative feedback mechanism. Ref.2 Ref.11

Subunit structure

Homotetramer Probable. Self-associates in a isoform-specific manner. Isoforms 1/A and 5/D but not isoform 2/B, 4/C and 6/E can oligomerize. Interacts with calmodulin. Interacts with Map7 and Src family Tyr protein kinases LYN, SRC, FYN, HCK, LCK and YES By similarity. Ref.11

Subcellular location

Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Probable. Note: Assembly of the putative homotetramer occurs primarily in the endoplasmic reticulum. Ref.7

Isoform 1: Cell membrane Ref.7.

Isoform 5: Cell membrane Ref.7.

Involvement in disease

Defects in TRPV4 are the cause of brachyolmia type 3 (BRAC3) [MIM:113500]; also known as brachyrachia. The brachyolmias constitute a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of skeletal dysplasias characterized by a short trunk, scoliosis and mild short stature. BRAC3 is an autosomal dominant form with severe kyphoscoliosis and flattened, irregular cervical vertebrae. Ref.12

Defects in TRPV4 are the cause of spondylometaphyseal dysplasia Kozlowski type (SMDK) [MIM:184252]. The spondylometaphyseal dysplasias (SMDs) are a group of short-stature disorders distinguished by abnormalities in the vertebrae and the metaphyses of the tubular bones. SMDK is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by significant scoliosis and mild metaphyseal abnormalities in the pelvis. The vertebrae exhibit platyspondyly and overfaced pedicles.

Defects in TRPV4 are the cause of metatropic dysplasia (MTD) [MIM:156530]; also called metatropic dwarfism. Metatropic dysplasia is a severe spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia characterized by short limbs with limitation and enlargement of joints and usually severe kyphoscoliosis. Radiologic features include severe platyspondyly, severe metaphyseal enlargement and shortening of long bones.

Sequence similarities
