Sequence analysis and homology modeling of mouse TRPV5 and TRPV6 channels / Azreena Izzaty Abd Manan

Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a group of cation channel that comprise of several sub-families which have important function in human body. One of the TRP channel sub-family, named transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) channel especially TRPV5 and TRPV6 are associated with m...
