Differential PI(4,5)P₂ sensitivities of TRPC4, C5 homomeric and TRPC1/4, C1/5 heteromeric channels.

ABSTRACT: Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) 4 and TRPC5 channels are modulated by the Gα_q-PLC pathway. Since phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P₂) maintains TRPC4 and TRPC5 channel function, the Gα_q-PLC pathway inhibits channel activity by depleting PI(4,5)P₂. Here we investigated the difference in PI(4,5)P₂ sensitivity between homomeric and heteromeric TRPC channels. First, by using a Danio rerio voltage-sensing phosphatase (DrVSP), we show that PI(4,5)P₂ dephosphorylation robustly inhibits TRPC4α, TRPC4β, and TRPC5 homotetramer currents and also TRPC1/4α, TRPC1/4β, and TRPC1/5 heterotetramer currents. Secondly, sensitivity of channels to PI(4,5)P₂ dephosphorylation was suggested through the usage o
