Analysis of RIC3 Gene (Mutation) by RT-qPCR (CAT#: STEM-MT-2107-LGZ)

Introduction

Official Full Name: RIC3 acetylcholine receptor chaperone<br />Also known as: RIC-3; AYST720; PRO1385<br />This gene encodes a member of the cholinesterase 3-like inhibitor resistance family that acts as a chaperone for specific serotonin type 3 receptors and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subtypes. The encoded proteins affect the folding and assembly of these receptor subunits in the endoplasmic reticulum and expression on the cell surface. The protein contains an N-terminal transmembrane domain, a proline-rich spacer, and a cytoplasmic C-terminal coiled domain. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
