High impact information on Trpc4

  • Here we describe a store-operated Ca2+ current in vascular endothelium and show that endothelial cells of mice deficient in TRP4 (also known as CCE1) lack this current [1].
  • The unexpected absence of the transient receptor potential channel, Trpc4, from Lyn(-/-) BMMCs may additionally contribute to their altered signaling properties [2].
  • Asterisks indicate post-translational modifications (left to right): proteolytic cleavage at the N-terminus; hydroxylation of Pro3; epimerization of Trp4; bromination of Trp7, and C-terminal amidation [3].
