Signal transduction pathways in the pentameric ligand-gated ion channels.

Signal transduction pathways in the pentameric ligand-gated ion channels.

The mechanisms of allosteric action within pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs) remain to be determined. Using crystallography, site-directed mutagenesis, and two-electrode voltage clamp measurements, we identified two functionally relevant sites in the extracellular (EC) domain of the bact...
