ANO3

Anoctamin 3 protein.

ANO3 refers also to the Anoctamin 3 gene. Anoctamins are a family of proteins that function as ion channels, controlling the flow of ions across cell membranes. These proteins are involved in various physiological processes, including the regulation of neuronal excitability and muscle contraction.

Specifically, the ANO3 gene provides instructions for the production of Anoctamin 3, which is primarily found in the brain and certain muscle tissues. Research suggests that Anoctamin 3 may play a role in neuronal signaling and muscle function.
