Background The product of this gene belongs to the family of purinoceptors for ATP. This receptor functions as a ligand-gated ion channel and is responsible for ATP-dependent lysis of macrophages through the formation of membrane pores permeable to large molecules. Activation of this nuclear receptor by ATP in the cytoplasm may be a mechanism by which cellular activity can be coupled to changes in gene expression. Multiple alternatively spliced variants have been identified, most of which fit nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) criteria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
Research Area Neuroscience antibody
Calculated MW 69 kDa
PTM Phosphorylation results in its inactivation.
ADP-ribosylation at Arg-125 is necessary and sufficient to activate P2RX7 and gate the channel.
Palmitoylation of several cysteines in the C-terminal cytoplasmic tail is required for efficient localization to cell surface.
