| Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 18438 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables extracellularly ATP-gated monoatomic cation channel activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including excitatory postsynaptic potential; nitric oxide biosynthetic process; and vasodilation. Located in apical part of cell. Is active in lysosomal membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; gut; immune system; nervous system; and viscerocranium. Orthologous to human P2RX4 (purinergic receptor P2X 4). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene results in hypertension, abnormal artery morphology, abnormal nitric oxide homeostasis, and impaired flow induced vascular remodeling and vasodilation.
