The Role of Membrane Lipids in Light-Activation of Drosophila TRP Channels
Biomolecules, 2022 Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels constitute a large superfamily of polymodal channel proteins with diverse roles in many physiological and sensory systems that function both as ionotropic and metabotropic receptors.

TRPV4, TRPC1, and TRPP2 assemble to form a flow-sensitive heteromeric channel [PDF]
, 2014 Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, a superfamily of ion channels, can be divided into 7 subfamilies, including TRPV, TRPC, TRPP, and 4 others. Functional TRP channels are tetrameric complexes consisting of 4 pore-forming subunits.

Structure of the full-length TRPV2 channel by cryo-EM. [PDF]
, 2016 Transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins form a superfamily Ca(2+)-permeable cation channels regulated by a range of chemical and physical stimuli. Structural analysis of a 'minimal' TRP vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) elucidated a mechanism of channel ...
