TRPM7 and TRPM6 are members of the transient receptor potential melastatin subfamily often referred to as TRP-PLIK or CHAK1 for TRPM7. TRPM7 has a molecular mass of approximately 165 kDa while TRPM6 is roughly 230 kDa. These proteins function as ion channels with kinase activity. They regulate the homeostasis of divalent cations like magnesium and calcium by permitting their entry into cells. TRPM7 is expressed in various tissues including the heart liver and brain while TRPM6 is mostly found in the kidney and intestine.
Biological function summary
TRPM7 and TRPM6 play essential roles in cellular magnesium absorption and homeostasis. They form homo- or heteromeric channel complexes with the combination of TRPM6 and TRPM7 enhancing channel function. These proteins influence critical cellular processes such as proliferation apoptosis and migration by modulating cellular magnesium levels. TRPM7's distinct kinase domain also impacts intracellular signaling pathways through phosphorylation of specific substrates regulating response to cellular stress and differentiation.
Pathways
TRPM7 and TRPM6 modulate cell signaling pathways linked to magnesium-sensitive enzymes and proteins like those involved in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. This pathway is integral for cell growth survival and metabolism. TRPM7 interacts with various signaling proteins including PLC and MAPK influencing cellular responses to external stimuli. TRPM6 often partners with TRPM7 to fine-tune these cellular pathways maintaining appropriate ionic balances necessary for cellular functions.
TRPM7 and TRPM6 are linked to magnesium homeostasis-related conditions such as hypomagnesemia and hypertension. Variants in TRPM6 associate with hypomagnesemia with secondary hypocalcemia a genetic disorder affecting magnesium uptake in the intestine. TRPM7 is connected to neurodegenerative diseases given its role in neuronal survival and response to oxidative stress. The interaction of TRPM7 with proteins involved in neurodegenerative pathways like amyloid precursor protein suggests potential involvement in Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis.
