Abstract excerpt
The Ca2+-selective tetrameric Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 6 (TRPV6) channel is an inwardly rectifying ion channel. The constitutive current endures Ca2+-induced inactivation as a result of the activation of phospholipase C followed depletion of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, and calmodulin binding. Replacing a glycine residue within the cytosolic S4-S5 linker of the human TRPV6 protein, glycine...
