Remote homolog detection places insect chemoreceptors in a cryptic protein superfamily spanning the tree of life

N. J. Himmel, D. Moi, R. Benton

The paper identifies thousands of new 7-transmembrane ion channel homologs across diverse taxa using a pipeline combining structure-based methods and graph analysis, revealing a cryptic superfamily with deep evolutionary origins.

Phylogenetic inference identifies two eumetazoan TRPM clades and an 8th family of TRP channel, TRP soromelastatin (TRPS)

N. J. Himmel, T. R. Gray, D. N. Cox

The paper performs a phylogenetic analysis of TRPM-like sequences across 14 phyla, identifying two TRPM families and an 8th TRP channel family, TRPS.

Purinergic signaling is enhanced in the absence of UT-A1 and UT-A3

N. J. Himmel, R. T. Rogers, S. K. Redd, Y. Wang, M. A. Blount

The paper shows that UT-A1/A3 knockout mice have increased urinary ATP and purinergic signaling, linked to AVP-resistant polyuria.
