While R140Q podocin mRNA expression was elevated, protein abundance was reduced by more than 50% within one week following induction
Title: An inducible mouse model of podocin-mutation-related nephrotic syndrome.
Ubiquitin ligase Ubr4 is a key component of the podocin interactome purified from cultured podocytes and native glomeruli. Ubiquitylomic analysis of mouse glomeruli revealed that podocin is ubiquitylated at two lysine residues. Ubiquitylation of one podocin site, K301, do not only target podocin for proteasomal degradation, but may also affect stability and disassembly of the multimeric complex.

the carboxyl terminus of podocin/MEC-2 has to be placed at the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane to mediate cholesterol binding and contribute to ion channel activity.

study shows a variety of mechanical stimuli cause activation of endogenously expressed TRPC6 channels of podocytes; also that podocin reduces sensitivity of TRPC6 channels to mechanical stimuli, so that a loss of podocin function would result in hyperactivation of TRPC6 channels in foot processes

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
