ANO3
Has calcium-dependent phospholipid scramblase activity; scrambles phosphatidylcholine and galactosylceramide. Seems to act as potassium channel regulator and may inhibit pain signaling; can facilitate KCNT1/Slack channel activity by promoting its full single-channel conductance at very low sodium concentrations and by increasing its sodium sensitivity. Does not exhibit calcium-activated chloride channel (CaCC) activity. Belongs to the anoctamin family. Highly expressed in the forebrain striatum. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
