1.A.4.3.1
Olfactory, mechanosensitive channel. Forms a complex with Stim1 and Orai1 (TC# 1.A.52.1.1) which is required for SOC currents (Cheng et al., 2008) (most similar to 1.A.4.8.1, but both are most closely related to 1.A.4.2).  Serves as a chemo-, osmo- and touch sensation receptor (Xiao and Xu 2009).
