About: Small-conductance mechanosensitive channel

An Entity of Type: protein, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Members of the Small Conductance Mechanosensitive Ion Channel (MscS) Family provide protection against hypo-osmotic shock in bacteria, responding both to stretching of the cell membrane and to membrane depolarization. In eukaryotes, they fulfill a multitude of important functions in addition to osmoregulation. They are present in the membranes of organisms from the three domains of life: bacteria, archaea, fungi and plants.
