Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 1

UniProtKB accession:  P11881

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Intracellular channel that mediates calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum following stimulation by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. Involved in the regulation of epithelial secretion of electrolytes and fluid through the interaction with AHCYL1 (PubMed:23542070). Plays a role in ER stress-induced apoptosis. Cytoplasmic calcium released from the ER triggers apoptosis by the activation of CaM kinase II, eventually leading to the activation of downstream apoptosis pathways.
