Biological functions of TRPs unravelled by spontaneous mutations and transgenic animals.
Biochemical Society transactions - 1 Feb 2007

Abstract excerpt
The identification of the biological functions of TRP (transient receptor potential) proteins requires genetic approaches because a selective TRP channel pharmacology to unravel the roles of TRPs is not available so far for most TRPs. A survey is therefore presented of transgenic animal models carrying mutations in TRP genes, as well as of those TRP genes that when mutated result in human disease; the chromosomal...
