TRPM2 is a melastatin-related member of the transient receptor potential protein super-family and forms tetrameric Ca2+-permeable cationic channels that open upon binding of intracellular ADP-ribose and structurally related compounds.TRPM2 channels are also potently activated by reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus acting as a cellular sensor for ROS.
