TheDrosophilaTRP and TRPL are assembled as homomultimeric channels in vivo

Abstract: SummaryFamily members of the cationic transient receptor potential (TRP) channels serve as sensors and transducers of environmental stimuli. The ability of different TRP channel isoforms of specific subfamilies to form heteromultimers and the structural requirements for channel assembly are still unresolved. Although heteromultimerization of different mammalian TRP channels within single subfamilies has been described, even within a subfamily (such as TRPC) not all members co-assemble with each other.

“…TRPL was also suggested to be part of the signalplex via heteromultimerization with TRP 28 . However, while the assembly into a signaling complex of TRP, PLCβ and ePKC by INAD is generally accepted, the binding of significant amounts of Rh1 to the INAD signaling complex as well as formation of TRP/TRPL heteromultimers is not supported by other studies 29 31 . The scaffolding protein INAD and the protein kinase C (ePKC), were also detected in the Rh1::TbID wt sample, albeit at a relatively low abundance.…”

“…3C). 33 We performed electroretinogram recordings of eyes from TRPL::SNAP expressing flies in various genetic backgrounds using a combination of orange and blue stimuli. According to our data, TRPL::SNAP forms functional TRPL channels and the tag has no obvious effect on amplitude, on-/off-transients, inactivation, deactivation, or prolonged depolarization afterpotential when compared to wild type flies (Fig.…”

“…To rule out possible effects of the transgenic expression of TRP per se, we performed several control experiments. In principle, an abnormal light response may be associated with impaired function of TRP channels due to effects on channel gating, large reduction in channel protein levels, 3 failure to interact with the INAD scaffold protein, 4 failure to assemble and form homotetramers, 5 or mislocalization of the TRP channel outside the signaling compartment, the rhabdomere. 5 Accordingly, in the previous study, we performed the above controls for the transgenic flies on a single null trp P343 background.…”
