Neuronal nicotinic receptors: insights gained from gene knockout and knockin mutant mice.

Cellular and molecular life sciences : CMLS - 1 Jul 2003

Abstract excerpt

Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that subserve a range of functions in the brain and peripheral nervous system. They are pentamers variously composed of alpha (alpha2-alpha10) and beta subunits (beta2-beta4). Pharmacological and ligand-binding studies have shown that the different subunits vary in their distribution and channel properties, but precise delineation of the in...
