OTOP3
Description
The OTOP3 (otopetrin 3) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 17.
OTOP3 is a human gene that encodes a protein known as the OTOP3 protein. This protein is involved in the transport of protons (H+) across cell membranes.
OTOP3 acts as a proton-selective channel, which means it allows protons (H+) to pass through its structure. This channel is gated by extracellular protons, meaning that the presence of protons outside the cell controls whether the channel is open or closed.
OTOP3 is also known as -.
