Structural insights into TRPV2 activation by small molecules

Abstract

A non-selective calcium channel transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is a potential drug target. Here, the authors employ cryo-electron microscopy, in silico docking, and electrophysiology to identify a binding site for an activator 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) in this channel.
