The discovery of the animal thermosensory channel TRPV1, which was awarded the 2021 Nobel prize, shares notable features with the higher plant thermosensory channel CNGC2/4. Both channels respond to changes in plasma membrane fluidity induced by temperature, leading to hyperphosphorylation of the HSF1 transcription factor via a specific heat-signaling cascade.
