trpa-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable monoatomic ion channel activity. Predicted to be involved in monoatomic ion transmembrane transport. Located in neuronal cell body and non-motile cilium. Expressed in several structures, including excretory system; pharyngeal muscle cell; sensory neurons; ventral nerve cord; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial episodic pain syndrome 1. Is an ortholog of human TRPA1 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily A member 1).
