Ion channels are integral membrane proteins that help establish and control the small voltage gradient across the plasma membrane of living cells by allowing the flow of ions down their electrochemical gradient. The TrpV3 protein belongs to a family of nonselective cation channels that function in a variety of processes including temperature sensation and vasoregulation. The thermosensitive members of this family are expressed in subsets of sensory neurons that terminate in the skin and are activated at distinct physiological temperatures. The TrpV3 channel is activated at temperatures between 22 and 40 C. The TrpV3 gene is in close proximity to the TrpV1 gene on chromosome 17, and studies suggest that the corresponding two proteins associate with each other to form heteromeric channels.
