Stimulation by resiniferatoxin makes this ion channel permeable to cations, especially calcium. | Stimulation by resiniferatoxin makes this ion channel permeable to cations, especially calcium. | ||
The pocket size characteristics of the TRPV1-RTX allow the installation of large structures such as the RTX : The '''sub-pocket''' near Y511 is shallow in the TRPV1-RTX because Y511 and E570 are close and I569 is oriented towards the vanilloid pocket. | The pocket size characteristics of the TRPV1-RTX allow the installation of large structures such as the RTX : The '''sub-pocket''' near <scene name='86/868185/Y511/2'>Y511</scene> is shallow in the TRPV1-RTX because <scene name='86/868185/Y511/2'>Y511</scene> and E570 are close and I569 is oriented towards the vanilloid pocket. | ||
The sub-pocket near L669, V583, and F587 is wide due to the projection of these amino acids out of the vanilloid pocket. This sub-pocket accommodates the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diterpene diterpene] group of the RTX. | The sub-pocket near L669, V583, and F587 is wide due to the projection of these amino acids out of the vanilloid pocket.

However, the orientation of L515 and M547 makes this region of the vanilloid pocket narrow, which considerably limits the nature of the fragments tolerated. | However, the orientation of L515 and M547 makes this region of the vanilloid pocket narrow, which considerably limits the nature of the fragments tolerated. | ||
The aromatic part of resiniferatoxin is located deeper in the sub-pocket near Y511 and is oriented almost parallel to the aromatic side chain of Y511, so it establishes a strong interaction π-π. The aromatic hydroxyl and methoxy groups of the RTX form strong hydrogen bonds with E570, R557 and S512. The ester group is linked to Y511 and T550 by hydrogen bonds.<ref>K.
