TRPV1, a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channels family, has been found to be involved in redox sensing. The crystal structure of the human TRPV1 ankyrin-repeat domain (TRPV1-ARD) was determined at 4.5 Å resolution under nonreducing conditions. This is the first report of the crystal structure of a ligand-free form of TRPV1-ARD and in particular of the human homologue. The structure showed a unique conformation in finger loop 3 near Cys258, which is most likely to be involved i ...[more]
