A mirror code for protein-cholesterol interactions in the two leaflets of biological membranes.

Scientific reports - 26 Feb 2016

Abstract excerpt

Cholesterol controls the activity of a wide range of membrane receptors through specific interactions and identifying cholesterol recognition motifs is therefore critical for understanding signaling receptor function. The membrane-spanning domains of the paradigm neurotransmitter receptor for acetylcholine (AChR) display a series of cholesterol consensus domains (referred to as "CARC"). Here we use a combination...
