Bhardwaj R, Lindinger S, Neuberger A, Nadezhdin K, Singh A, Cunha M, et al.
Sci Adv . 2020 Nov; 6(48). PMID: 33246965
Epithelial calcium channel TRPV6 plays vital roles in calcium homeostasis, and its dysregulation is implicated in multifactorial diseases, including cancers. Here, we study the molecular mechanism of selective nanomolar-affinity TRPV6...
