This gene belongs to the superfamily of acid-sensing ion
channels, which are proton-gated, amiloride-sensitive sodium
channels. These channels have been implicated in synaptic
transmission, pain perception as well as mechanoperception. This
gene is predominantly expressed in the pituitary gland, and was
considered a candidate for paroxysmal dystonic choreoathetosis
(PDC), a movement disorder, however, no correlation was found
between mutations in this gene and PDC. Alternative splicing at
this locus results in two transcript variants encoding different
isoforms.1) Donier, E., et al. Eur. J. Neurosci. 28(1):74-86(2008)
