The M4 transmembrane segment contributes to agonist efficacy differences between alpha1 and alpha3 glycine receptors.

Molecular membrane biology - 1 Aug 2009

Chen Xuebin, Webb Timothy I, Lynch Joseph W

Abstract excerpt

To date there are few compounds known to pharmacologically discriminate between alpha1 and alpha3 subunit-containing glycine receptors (GlyRs). The present study stemmed from an observation that the glycinergic agonists, taurine and beta-alanine, act with much lower agonist efficacy at alpha3 Gly...
