Abstract excerpt
Homomeric 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3A receptors (5-HT3ARs) have a single channel conductance (gamma) below the resolution of single channel recording (966 +/- 75 fS, estimated by variance analysis). By contrast, heteromeric 5-HT3A/B and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) have picosiemen range gamma values. In this study, single channel recordings revealed that replacement of cytoplasmic...
