Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: 5-Hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT3) receptors mediate the fast excitatory neurotransmission of serotonin. In this study, we have characterized the effects of four naturally occurring, nonsynonymous variants of the human 5-HT3B subunit on expression and signalling properties of heteromeric 5-HT3AB receptors. METHODS AND RESULTS: 5-HT3AB receptor signalling was studied in a fluorescence-based cell membrane...
