Summary

Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 26 (LRRC26) is a protein located on chromatin and plays an important role in various physiological processes. In recent years, researchers have conducted in-depth studies on the biological functions of LRRC26 and discovered its potential as a drug target or biomarker. This article aims to summarize the research progress of LRRC26 and provide reference for future research.

introduction

Protein is one of the most important molecules in living systems, and its functional and structural characteristics play a key role in the growth, development, metabolism and other processes of organisms. In recent years, with the development of high-throughput sequencing technology, more and more studies have found that proteins play important functions in organisms. Among them, proteins of the Leucine-rich repeat (LRRC) family play important roles in cell signaling, metabolic regulation, and immunity. Response plays an important role. LRRC26 is a member of the LRRC family, and its function and mechanism in vivo require further study.

Protein Name: Leucine Rich Repeat Containing 26

Functions: Auxiliary protein of the large-conductance, voltage and calcium-activated potassium channel (BK alpha). Required for the conversion of BK alpha channels from a high-voltage to a low-voltage activated channel type in non-excitable cells. These are characterized by negative membrane voltages and constant low levels of calcium
