1.A.4.5.3
MLSN1- and TRP-related MTR1 (TrpM5; LTRPC5) of 1165 aas and 6 TMSs.  Associated with the Beckman-Wiedemann Syndrum and causes a predisposition for neoplasia (Prawitt et al. 2000). Involved in taste to bitter, sweet and umami, but not absolutely required for these. Thus, TrpM5-dependent and TrpM5-independent pathways underlie bitter, sweet, and umami tastes (Damak et al. 2006). It plays a role in insulin secretion. It and phospholipase C-β2 colocalize in taste receptor cells of zebrafish (Yoshida et al. 2007). It is a voltage-modulated, Ca2+-activated, monovalent cation (Na+, K+, Cs+) channel (VCAM) that mediates transient membrane depolarization. It is blocked by extracellular acidification but activated by arachidonic acid (Prawitt et al. 2003). The cryoEM structure of TrpM5 in Zebrafish is known (See TC# 1.A.4.5.14).
