Abstract excerpt
In this study, we investigated the effects of single alanine substitutions of amino acid residues in the supposed ATP binding site of the human P2X3 receptor on the agonistic effect of nucleotide analogs. The wild-type and mutant receptors were expressed in HEK293 cells, and the nucleotide effects were measured by means of the whole-cell patch-clamp method. Modifications in the receptor binding site changed the...
