Description Pore-forming subunit of a voltage-gated ion channel required for sensory perception of sweet, bitter and umami tastes . Specifically present in type II taste bud cells, where it plays a central role in sweet, bitter and umami taste perception by inducing ATP release from the cell, ATP acting as a neurotransmitter to activate afferent neural gustatory pathways . Together with CALHM3, forms a fast-activating voltage-gated ATP-release channel in type II taste bud cells (TBCs) . Acts both as a voltage-gated and calcium-activated ion channel: mediates neuronal excitability in response to changes in extracellular Ca2+ concentration (PMID:22711817, PMID:23300080). Has poor ion selectivity and forms a wide pore (around 14 Angstroms) that mediates permeation of Ca2+, Na+ and K+, as well as permeation of monovalent anions (PMID:22711817). Acts as an activator of the ERK1 and ERK2 cascade (PMID:23345406). Triggers endoplasmic reticulum stress by reducing the calcium content of the endoplasmic reticulum (PMID:21574960). May indirectly control amyloid precursor protein (APP) proteolysis and aggregated amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptides levels in a Ca2+ dependent manner (PMID:18585350).
