TRPV

TRPV is a family of transient receptor potential ion channels.TRPV subunits contain three to five N-terminal ankyrin repeats and can be activated through a variety of mechanisms. TRPV1 to TRPV4 can act as thermometers on a molecular level. TRPV1, specifically, is activated by noxious heat, acidic pH and capsaicin  TRPV4, alternatively, can be activated by cell swelling caused by 5',6'-ep-oxyeicosatrienoic acid.
