Abstract excerpt
Alcohols and volatile anesthetics affect the function of members of the nicotinic acetylcholine (nACh) superfamily of receptors. Studies on glycine and GABA(A) receptors implicate amino acid residues within transmembrane (TM) regions two and three of these receptors as critical for alcohol and anesthetic enhancement of receptor function. The serotonin-3 (5-HT(3)) receptor is a member of the nicotinic...
