Molecular details of ruthenium red pore block in TRPV channels
Transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) channels play a critical role in calcium homeostasis, pain sensation, immunological response, and cancer progression. TRPV channels are blocked by ruthenium red (RR), a universal pore blocker for a wide array

A co-operative knock-on mechanism underpins Ca 2+ -selective cation permeation in TRPV channels [PDF]
The selective exchange of ions across cellular membranes is a vital biological process. Ca 2+ -mediated signalling is implicated in a broad array of physiological processes in cells, whilst elevated intracellular concentrations of Ca 2+ are cytotoxic.

A novel ion channel formed by interaction of TRPML3 with TRPV5. [PDF]
TRPML3 and TRPV5 are members of the mucolipin (TRPML) and TRPV subfamilies of transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channels. Based on sequence similarities of the pore forming regions and on structure-function evidence, we hypothesized that the pore

Human mutations highlight an intersubunit cation–π bond that stabilizes the closed but not open or inactivated states of TRPV channels [PDF]
Significance Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are key cation channels that respond to thermal, chemical, electric, or mechanical stimuli. There are >60 mutations known in TrpV4 that cause defects in bone or neural development.

BRET-Based Approaches for Ion Channels: Emerging Applications and Future Directions. [PDF]
Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) is a versatile method for studying ligand–protein interactions. Its compatibility with high‐throughput screening and real‐time kinetics has made it widely used in drug discovery. Here, we summarize recent applications of BRET‐based methods for studying ligand binding to ion channels, highlighting key ...

A REVIEW ON ROLE OF TRPV CATION CHANNELS
The mammalian branch of the Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) superfamily of cation channels consists of 28 members. They can be subdivided in six main subfamilies: the TRPC (‘Canonical’), TRPV (‘Vanilloid’), TRPM (‘Melastatin’), TRPP (‘Polycystin’), TRPML (‘Mucolipin’) and the TRPA (‘Ankyrin’) group.
