Agonist binding induces a conformation change that leads to the opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane (PubMed:11752216, PubMed:25282151). The channel is permeable to a range of divalent cations including calcium, the influx of which may activate a potassium current which hyperpolarizes the cell membrane (PubMed:11752216, PubMed:25282151). In the ear, this may lead to a reduction in basilar membrane motion, altering the activity of auditory nerve fibers and reducing the range of dynamic hearing. This may protect against acoustic trauma. May also regulate keratinocyte adhesion (PubMed:11021840). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11021840, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11752216, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25282151, ECO:0000305}. |Neur chan memb| |Neur chan LBD| |cholinergic synapse| |detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception of sound| |acetylcholine-gated cation-selective channel activity| |acetylcholine-gated channel complex| |integral component of postsynaptic specialization membrane| |detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception| |detection of mechanical stimulus| |extracellular ligand-gated ion channel activity| |calcium channel activity| |excitatory postsynaptic potential| |negative regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade| |chemical synaptic transmission, postsynaptic| |inner ear morphogenesis| |regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential| |ear morphogenesis| |detection of external stimulus| |detection of abiotic stimulus| |transmembrane signaling receptor activity| |sensory perception of sound| |sensory perception of mechanical stimulus| |negative regulation of MAPK cascade| |inner ear development| |calcium ion transmembrane transport| |response to mechanical stimulus| |ear development| |calcium ion transport| |sensory organ morphogenesis| |synapse| |positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration| |embryonic organ morphogenesis| |regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade| |divalent metal ion transport| |divalent inorganic cation transport| |neuron projection| |regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration| |negative regulation of protein phosphorylation| |chemical synaptic transmission| |anterograde trans-synaptic signaling| |cell surface receptor signaling pathway involved in cell-cell signaling| |regulation of membrane potential| |embryonic organ development| |cellular calcium ion homeostasis| |trans-synaptic signaling| |negative regulation of phosphorylation| |calcium ion homeostasis| |synaptic signaling| |cellular divalent inorganic cation homeostasis| |divalent inorganic cation homeostasis| |negative regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |detection of stimulus involved in sensory perception| |sensory organ development| |cell junction| |cellular metal ion homeostasis| |negative regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |inorganic cation transmembrane transport| |negative regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |embryonic morphogenesis| |negative regulation of protein modification process| |cation transmembrane transport| |metal ion homeostasis| |cellular cation homeostasis| |metal ion transport| |cellular ion homeostasis| |inorganic ion transmembrane transport| |detection of stimulus| |cation homeostasis| |inorganic ion homeostasis| |cellular chemical homeostasis| |regulation of MAPK cascade| |ion homeostasis| |cation transport| |cellular homeostasis| |ion transmembrane transport| |animal organ morphogenesis| |sensory perception| |embryo development| |negative regulation of cellular protein metabolic process| |negative regulation of protein metabolic process| |chemical homeostasis| |cell-cell signaling| |response to abiotic stimulus| |negative regulation of signal transduction| |transmembrane transport| |negative regulation of cell communication| |negative regulation of signaling| |ion transport| |nervous system process| |integral component of plasma membrane| |regulation of protein phosphorylation| |regulation of phosphorylation| |negative regulation of response to stimulus| |homeostatic process| |regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |regulation of protein modification process| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp528|TGF-beta1 44ng/ml R08 exp528]]|-1.74| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
