Abstract excerpt
The substituted cysteine accessibility method has proven useful for investigating structural changes of the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptor during channel gating and allosteric modulation. In the present study, the surface accessibility and reaction rate of propyl- and hexyl-methanethiosulfonate to cysteine residues introduced into the third transmembrane segment of the GABA(A) receptor alpha(1)...
