Restrictive Expression of Acid-Sensing Ion Channel 5 (Asic5) in Unipolar Brush Cells of the Vestibulocerebellum

Acid-sensing ion channels (Asic) are ligand-gated ion channels in the Degenerin/Epithelial Na+ channel (Deg/ENaC) family. Asic proteins are richly expressed in mammalian neurons. Mammals express five Asic genes: Asic1-5. The gene product of Asic5 is an orphan member of the family about which little...
