MeSH Heading: TRPV Cation Channels
Tree Number(s): D12.776.157.530.400.901.888
Unique ID: D050916
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D050916
Scope Note: A subgroup of TRP cation channels named after the vanilloid receptor. They are very sensitive to TEMPERATURE; hot spicy food, and CAPSAICIN. They contain a TRP domain (a five-turn amphipathic helix with an invariant TRYPTOPHAN) and ANKYRIN repeats. Selectivity for CALCIUM over SODIUM ranges from 3 to 100 fold.
Entry Term(s): Capsaicin Receptor; Capsaicin Receptors; Vanilloid Receptor; Vanilloid Receptors
