UniProtKB description: Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-gated calcium channel that, upon inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding, mediates calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (PubMed:11955285, PubMed:12442173, PubMed:20813840, PubMed:2554142, PubMed:28416699, PubMed:35568199). Undergoes conformational changes upon ligand binding, suggesting structural flexibility that allows the channel to switch from a closed state, capable of interacting with its ligands such as inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and Ca(2+), to an open state, capable of transferring calcium ions across the ER membrane (By similarity). Cytoplasmic calcium, released from the ER, triggers apoptosis by the activation of CAMK2 complex (PubMed:19752026). As part of a complex composed by HSPA9, ITPR1 and VDAC1, directly controls calcium uptake into mitochondria (By similarity). Involved in the regulation of epithelial secretion of electrolytes and fluid through the interaction with AHCYL1 (PubMed:23542070).
