Abstract excerpt
Selected regions of the Hm1 muscarinic cholinergic receptor were mutated to analyze the molecular mechanisms of agonist-induced receptor internalization (or sequestration). The wild-type and mutant Hm1 genes were expressed, using pSG5, in U293 human kidney cells. Whereas surface receptor density measured with the polar tracer N-[3H]methylscopolamine was rapidly reduced by carbachol exposure, total receptor...
