Abstract excerpt
Members of the polycystin family (PKD2 and PKD2L1) of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels conduct Ca2+ and depolarizing monovalent cations. Variants in PKD2 cause autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in humans, whereas loss of PKD2L1 expression causes seizure susceptibility in mice. Understanding structural and functional regulation of these channels will provide the basis for interpreting...
