Description Component of a heteromeric calcium-permeable ion channel formed by PKD1 and PKD2 that is activated by interaction between PKD1 and a Wnt family member, such as WNT3A and WNT9B (PMID:27214281). Can also form a functional, homotetrameric ion channel (PMID:29899465). Functions as a cation channel involved in fluid-flow mechanosensation by the primary cilium in renal epithelium (PMID:18695040). Functions as outward-rectifying K+ channel, but is also permeable to Ca2+, and to a much lesser degree also to Na+ (PMID:11854751, PMID:15692563, PMID:27071085, PMID:27991905). May contribute to the release of Ca2+ stores from the endoplasmic reticulum (PMID:11854751, PMID:20881056). Together with TRPV4, forms mechano- and thermosensitive channels in cilium (PMID:18695040). PKD1 and PKD2 may function through a common signaling pathway that is necessary to maintain the normal, differentiated state of renal tubule cells. Acts as a regulator of cilium length, together with PKD1. The dynamic control of cilium length is essential in the regulation of mechanotransductive signaling. The cilium length response creates a negative feedback loop whereby fluid shear-mediated deflection of the primary cilium, which decreases intracellular cAMP, leads to cilium shortening and thus decreases flow-induced signaling. Also involved in left-right axis specification via its role in sensing nodal flow; forms a complex with PKD1L1 in cilia to facilitate flow detection in left-right patterning. Detection of asymmetric nodal flow gives rise to a Ca2+ signal that is required for normal, asymmetric expression of genes involved in the specification of body left-right laterality .
