Drosophila TRPN(=NOMPC) channel localizes to the distal end of mechanosensory cilia.
<h4>Background</h4>A TRPN channel protein is essential for sensory transduction in insect mechanosensory neurons and in vertebrate hair cells. The Drosophila TRPN homolog, NOMPC, is required to generate mechanoreceptor potentials and currents in tactile bristles. NOMPC is also required,...
