Structural insights into the gating mechanisms of TRPV channels

Abstract

Transient Receptor Potential channels from the vanilloid subfamily (TRPV) are a group of cation channels modulated by a variety of endogenous stimuli as well as a range of natural and synthetic compounds. Their roles in human health make them of keen interest, particularly from a pharmacological perspective. However, despite this interest, the complexity of these channels has made it difficult to obtain high resolution structures until recently. With the cryo-EM resolution revolution, TRPV channel structural biology has blossomed to produce dozens of structures, covering every TRPV family member and a variety of approaches to examining channel modulation. Here, we review all currently available TRPV structures and the mechanistic insights into gating that they reveal.
