== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MSCL_MYCTA MSCL_MYCTA] Channel that opens in response to stretch forces in the membrane lipid bilayer. The force required to trigger channel opening depends on the nature of the membrane lipids; the presence of phosphatidylinositol enhances mechanosensitivity of the channel. May participate in the regulation of osmotic pressure changes within the cell.[UniProtKB:P9WJN5]
