UniProtKB description:  Constitutively active calcium selective cation channel thought to be involved in Ca(2+) reabsorption in kidney and intestine (PubMed:10085067, PubMed:11035011, PubMed:12574114, PubMed:29323279). Required for normal Ca(2+) reabsorption in the kidney distal convoluted tubules (By similarity). The channel is activated by low internal calcium level and the current exhibits an inward rectification (PubMed:29323279). A Ca(2+)-dependent feedback regulation includes fast channel inactivation and slow current decay (PubMed:11035011). Heteromeric assembly with TRPV6 seems to modify channel properties. TRPV5-TRPV6 heteromultimeric concatemers exhibit voltage-dependent gating (PubMed:12574114).
