sigmap1a1

sigma1a1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SIGMA1A1 gene. The protein product of this gene is a component of the Sigma receptor complex. Sigma receptors are a class of transmembrane proteins involved in various cellular processes including cell survival, differentiation, and calcium homeostasis. The SIGMA1A1 gene is located on chromosome 19. The protein is thought to play a role in neurological disorders and has been investigated for its potential therapeutic targets. Research has indicated that sigma1a1 may interact with other proteins, contributing to its diverse functions within the cell. Its precise mechanisms of action are still an active area of study, with ongoing efforts to elucidate its role in both normal physiological states and disease pathogenesis.
