receptores vaniloides
Scope note: Subgrupo de canales catiónicos TRP denominados por el receptor vainilloide. Son muy sensibles a la TEMPERATURA, a los alimentos muy especiados y a la CAPSAICINA. Tienen un dominio TRP (una hélice anfipática de cinco vueltas con un TRIPTÓFANO invariante) y repeticiones de ANQUIRINA. La selectividad por el CALCIO es de 3 a 100 veces superior a la selectividad por el SODIO.

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.
