| UniProt functional annotation for Q94KI8 | |||
| UniProt code: Q94KI8. |
| Organism: | Arabidopsis thaliana (Mouse-ear cress). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis. | |
| Function: | Functions as a voltage-gated inward-rectifying Ca(2+) channel (VDCC) across the vacuole membrane. Is one of the essential components of the slow vacuolar (SV) channel. Acts as the major ROS-responsive Ca(2+) channel and is the possible target of Al-dependent inhibition. Involved in the regulation of germination and stomatal movement. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15464979, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15772667}. | |
| Activity regulation: | Inhibited by Al(3+). | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Vacuole membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15772667, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17151019}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15772667}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Ubiquitously expressed. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11577183}. | |
| Domain: | Each of the two internal repeats contains five hydrophobic transmembrane segments (S1, S2, S3, S5, S6) and one positively charged transmembrane segment (S4). S4 segments probably represent the voltage- sensor and are characterized by a series of positively charged amino acids (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Disruption phenotype: | Plants display an impairment of both the Ca(2+) inhibition of stomatal guard cell opening and abscisic acid (ABA) inhibition of seed germination. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15772667}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the calcium channel alpha-1 subunit (TC 1.A.1.11) family. Two pore calcium channel subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAD11598.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAD15312.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=CAB77841.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
