Abstract excerpt
The M2 loop and the M3 segment are the major pore-lining domains in the GluR channel. These domains determine ion permeation and channel block processes and are extensively involved in gating. To study the distribution of the membrane electric potential across the GluR channel pore, we recorded from alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-proprionic acid receptors containing M2 and M3 cysteine substitutions in...
