  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Significance</jats:title> <jats:p> Transient receptor potential cation (TRPC) 4 and 5 channels are nonselective cation channels activated via G protein-coupled receptors. In contrast to all other TRPC channels, they are regarded as insensitive to the phospholipase C (PLC) product diacylglycerol (DAG). Deeper insight into the G protein-dependent activation mechanism of TRPC4/5 channels is lacking. In this study we unravel the G <jats:sub>q/11</jats:sub> protein-mediated signaling pathway leading to TRPC4/5 activation. Depletion of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate causes a conformational change of the TRPC5 C terminus leading to dissociation of Na <jats:sup>+</jats:sup> /H <jats:sup>+</jats:sup> exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) proteins thereby inducing a DAG-sensitive channel state. Our findings reveal a previously unidentified activation mechanism of TRPC4/5 channels with NHERF proteins as dynamic regulators of channel activity. Moreover, we demonstrate that TRPC channels are DAG sensitive. </jats:p>
