Molecular Mechanism of Hyperactivation Conferred by a Truncated TRPA1 Disease Mutant Suggests New Gating Insights
2022-01-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The wasabi receptor, TRPA1, is a non-selective homotetrameric cation channel expressed in primary sensory neurons of the pain pathway, where it is activated by diverse chemical irritants. A direct role for TRPA1 in human health has been highlighted by the discovery of genetic variants associated with severe pain disorders. One such TRPA1 mutant was identified in a father-son pair with cramp fasc...
