General description

Mucolipin 3 (MCOLN3) belongs to the mucolipin family of ion channels and the superfamily of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. This 553-amino acid protein is expressed in the early and late endosomes of epithelial cells. MCOLN3 possesses six transmembrane domains with the tails oriented towards the interior the cytosol.
Mucolipin-3 is mapped to human chromosome 1p22.3.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 26-43 of human mucolipin-3. This sequence is identical between human and mouse and highly conserved in mouse and rat.

Application

Anti-Mucolipin-3 (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit
has been used in immunoblotting and immunostaining.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mucolipin 3 (MCOLN3) is a Ca2+-permeable channel which regulates the cargo traffic along the endosomal pathway. Its activity is regulated by changes in the pH. Overexpression of MCOLN3 in cells lead to large variations in the endosomal pathway and the depletion in its levels leads to the degradation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR).
Mutations in mouse mucolipin3 (MLN3, TRPML3) encoded by the MCOLN3 gene, are associated with deafness and pigmentation defects in varitint-waddler mice.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, and 15 mM sodium azide.

TRPML3 (mucolipin 3, MCOLN3) is an endolysosomal cation channel belonging to the TRPML subfamily of transient receptor potential channels. Gain-of-function mutations in the Trpml3 gene cause deafness, circling behavior and coat color dilution in mice due to cell death of

The varitint-waddler phenotype in mice is caused by gain-of-function mutations in mucolipin-3 (MCOLN3), a member of the mucolipin family of ion channels. These mice are characterized by defects in pigmentation, hearing loss and vestibular defects, suggesting that MCOLN3 might play
