Tetramerization domains of TRPC channel

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Ion channels are transmembrane pores which allow the passage of ions into and out of a cell down the electrochemical gradient. There are hundreds of different ion channels that are regrouped inside protein family and they are distinguished based upon their ion selectivity, gating mechanism, and sequence similarity. One of these families is known as TRPC channels. These channels are very diverse in their physiological function and are activated following a hormonal stimulation, and this thought the animal kingdom.
