Abstract

Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels play an important role in cellular processes by facilitating permeation of ions across the membrane. The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1-4 (TRPV1-4) subfamily of channels are recognized as heat activated ion channels that can also be modulated by pharmacological compounds (such as cannabinoids) and lipids. High-resolution structures of TRPVs have been solved by cryo electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography, but the N- and C- terminal regions remained unresolved likely owing to their dynamic nature.
