dTULP, the Drosophila melanogaster homolog of tubby, regulates transient receptor potential channel localization in cilia.
Mechanically gated ion channels convert sound into an electrical signal for the sense of hearing. In Drosophila melanogaster, several transient receptor potential (TRP) channels have been implicated to be involved in this process. TRPN (NompC) and TRPV (Inactive) channels are localized in the distal...
