TRP CHANNEL MODULATION

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 这个项目的目的是对调节痛觉重要通道活动的蛋白质进行生化表征。研究对象将包括通道胞质结构域、小分子调节剂和多肽调节剂。其目的是纯化蛋白质，确定分子相互作用部位，并进行结构研究。加州大学旧金山分校的质谱仪将帮助我们确定纯化产物的准确质量，并确认纯化产物的身份。在该设施的帮助下，我们还可以在未来解释化学交联研究的结果。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The purpose of this project is to perform biochemical characterization of proteins that modulate the activity of channels important for pain sensation. The targets of study will include channel cytoplasmic domains, small molecule modulators, and peptide modulators. The objective is to purify proteins, determine molecular interaction sites, and perform structural studies.The UCSF mass spectrometry facility will aid us in determining the accurate mass of purified products and confirming the identity of purified products. The aid of the facility will also allow us to interpret results from chemical crosslinking studies in the future.
