products description :
Pore-forming subunit of a mechanosensitive non-specific cation channel (PubMed:23479567, PubMed:23695678). Generates currents characterized by a linear current-voltage relationship that are sensitive to ruthenium red and gadolinium. Plays a key role in epithelial cell adhesion by maintaining integrin activation through R-Ras recruitment to the ER, most probably in its activated state, and subsequent stimulation of calpain signaling (PubMed:20016066). In the kidney, may contribute to the detection of intraluminal pressure changes and to urine flow sensing. Acts as shear-stress sensor that promotes endothelial cell organization and alignment in the direction of blood flow through calpain activation (PubMed:25119035). Plays a key role in blood vessel formation and vascular structure in both development and adult physiology (By similarity).

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a mechanically-activated ion channel that links mechanical forces to biological signals. The encoded protein contains 36 transmembrane domains and functions as a homotetramer. Defects in this gene have been associated with dehydrated hereditary stomatocytosis.

uniprot summary :
PIEZO1: Component of mechanosensitive channel required for the mechanosensitive currents. Plays a key role in epithelial cell adhesion by maintaining integrin activation through R-Ras recruitment to the ER, most probably in its activated state, and subsequent stimulation of calpain signaling. Belongs to the PIEZO family. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Endoplasmic reticulum. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 16q24.3. Cellular Component: endoplasmic reticulum; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; ER-Golgi intermediate compartment membrane; integral to membrane; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: cation channel activity; mechanically-gated ion channel activity. Biological Process: cation transport; positive regulation of cell-cell adhesion mediated by integrin; positive regulation of integrin activation. Disease: Dehydrated Hereditary Stomatocytosis With Or Without Pseudohyperkalemia And/or Perinatal Edema
