    Conservation of the cooling agent binding pocket within the TRPM subfamily

    Kate Huffer, Matthew CS Denley ... Kenton J Swartz
    The cooling agent pocket in TRPM8 is conserved in a subset of other TRPM channels and the cooling agent icilin can regulate opening of TRPM4 channels in response to calcium and voltage.

    Gain-of-function variants in the ion channel gene TRPM3 underlie a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders

    Lydie Burglen, Evelien Van Hoeymissen ... Joris Vriens
    Newly identified gain-of-function variants indicate TRPM3 as the cause of a spectrum of autosomal dominant neurodevelopmental disorders with frequent cerebellar involvement in humans.

    Global alignment and assessment of TRP channel transmembrane domain structures to explore functional mechanisms

    Katherine E Huffer, Antoniya A Aleksandrova ... Kenton J Swartz
    Structure-based alignment of TRP channels enables comparison of structural changes, ion permeation pathways and ligand-binding sites and reveals over-representation of structures that represent non-conducting states.

    Disease-associated mutations in the human TRPM3 render the channel overactive via two distinct mechanisms

    Siyuan Zhao, Yevgen Yudin, Tibor Rohacs
    Disease-associated mutants of the TRPM3 ion channel are overactive, and they are inhibited by the antiepileptic medication primidone, offering a potential therapeutic intervention to treat this channelopathy.

    The molecular appearance of native TRPM7 channel complexes identified by high-resolution proteomics

    Astrid Kollewe, Vladimir Chubanov ... Thomas Gudermann
    High-resolution proteomics in conjunction with biochemical and electrophysiological experiments revealed that the channel-kinase TRPM7 in rodent brain forms macromolecular complexes containing the metal transporters CNNM1-4 and a small G-protein ARL15.

    Structure of the human lipid-gated cation channel TRPC3

    Chen Fan, Wooyoung Choi ... Wei Lü
    Cryo-EM structure reveals architecture, lipid-binding sites, and ion-conducting pore of the human TRPC3 cation channel.

    Structure of a TRPM2 channel in complex with Ca2+ explains unique gating regulation

    Zhe Zhang, Balázs Tóth ... László Csanády
    The 3Å structure and correlated functional analysis of the TRPM2 cation channel from Nematostella vectensis shed light on the molecular mechanisms of TRPM2 regulation by intra- and extracellular Ca2+, and of inactivation of human TRPM2.

    Sequence and structural conservation reveal fingerprint residues in TRP channels

    Deny Cabezas-Bratesco, Francisco A Mcgee ... Sebastian E Brauchi
    Joint sequence, structure, and phylogenetic analyses identify highly conserved features in transmembrane domains of transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channel proteins that offer a novel explanation for how TRPs could integrate stimuli into cellular signals.

    Ligand recognition and gating mechanism through three ligand-binding sites of human TRPM2 channel

    Yihe Huang, Becca Roth ... Juan Du
    High-resolution structures of human TRPM2 in different functional states provided the mechanism underlying ligand recognition, channel activation and inhibition.

    Epithelial magnesium transport by TRPM6 is essential for prenatal development and adult survival

    Vladimir Chubanov, Silvia Ferioli ... Thomas Gudermann
    Mice deficient in the TRPM6 channel suffer from impaired prenatal development, shortened lifespan, growth deficit and disturbed energy balance due to a defect in epithelial Mg2+ uptake, thus highlighting a pivotal role of TRPM6 in organismal Mg2+ homeostasis.
