Charge scan reveals an extended region at the intracellular end of the GABA receptor pore that can influence ion selectivity.

The Journal of general physiology - 1 Jan 2008

Wotring Virginia E, Weiss David S

Abstract excerpt

Selective permeability is a fundamental property of ion channels. The Cys-loop receptor superfamily is composed of both excitatory (ACh, 5-HT) and inhibitory (GABA, glycine) neurotransmitter-operated ion channels. In the GABA receptor, it has been previously shown that the charge selectivity of t...
