Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms involved in agonist-induced down-regulation of the human m3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor were investigated by site-directed mutagenesis of the receptor cytoplasmic carboxyl terminus. Threonine residues (Thr550,553,554) were converted into alanines collectively and individually. The mutated and wild-type receptor cDNAs stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells displayed similar...
