== Function ==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TM38A_CHICK TM38A_CHICK]] Monovalent cation channel required for maintenance of rapid intracellular calcium release. May act as a potassium counter-ion channel that functions in synchronization with calcium release from intracellular stores.[UniProtKB:Q3TMP8] 
<div style="background-color:#fffaf0;">
== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Trimeric intracellular cation (TRIC) channels are thought to provide counter-ion currents that facilitate the active release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores. TRIC activity is controlled by voltage and Ca(2+) modulation, but underlying mechanisms have remained unknown. Here we describe high-resolution crystal structures of vertebrate TRIC-A and TRIC-B channels, both in Ca(2+)-bound and Ca(2+)-free states, and we analyze conductance properties in structure-inspired mutagenesis experiments. The TRIC channels are symmetric trimers, wherein we find a pore in each protomer that is gated by a highly conserved lysine residue. In the resting state, Ca(2+) binding at the luminal surface of TRIC-A, on its threefold axis, stabilizes lysine blockage of the pores. During active Ca(2+) release, luminal Ca(2+) depletion removes inhibition to permit the lysine-bearing and voltage-sensing helix to move in response to consequent membrane hyperpolarization. Diacylglycerol is found at interprotomer interfaces, suggesting a role in metabolic control.
