    Summary
    Enables several functions, including ATPase binding activity; nucleotide binding activity; and transition metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including blood vessel diameter maintenance; regulation of cation transmembrane transport; and regulation of neuron death. Located in several cellular components, including azurophil granule; nuclear membrane; and sarcolemma. Part of protein-containing complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density, intracellular component. Used to study several diseases, including acute necrotizing pancreatitis; brain ischemia (multiple); end stage renal disease; impotence; and portal hypertension. Biomarker of several diseases, including brain disease (multiple); cardiomyopathy (multiple); hypertension (multiple); kidney failure (multiple); and retinal disease (multiple). Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Parkinson's disease; asthma; cystic fibrosis; and hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Orthologous to human NOS1 (nitric oxide synthase 1).

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      PDZ_signaling; PDZ domain found in a variety of Eumetazoan signaling molecules, often in tandem arrangements. May be responsible for specific protein-protein interactions, as most PDZ domains bind C-terminal polypeptides, and binding to internal (non-C-terminal) ...
