Abstract excerpt
GABAA receptor is the primary mediator of inhibition in the adult mammalian brain. Our recent studies revealed that a classic gating scheme for GABAAR needed to be updated with an intermediate step (flipping) and that the α1Phe64 mutation at the GABA binding site affects this transition. However, description of flipping at the single-channel level remains incomplete. In particular, its role in singly-bound and...
