Abstract excerpt
The TRP gene family encodes primarily cation non-selective, Ca2+ permeant channels that are involved in a dizzying array of sensory mechanisms. Two channels in this large family TRPV5 and TRPV6 are highly Ca2+ selective and are expressed in epithelia where they are important in Ca2+ uptake. TRPV5...
