Abstract excerpt
We have examined the ligand binding site of the serotonin 5-HT6 receptor using site-directed mutagenesis. Replacing the highly conserved Asp106 in transmembrane region III by asparagine eliminated D-[3H]-lysergic acid diethylamide ([3H]LSD) binding to the mutant receptor transiently expressed in...
