Characterization of Residues in the 5-HT3 Receptor M4 Region That Contribute to Function.
5-HT3 receptors are members of the family of pentameric ligand gated ion channels (pLGICs). Each subunit has four transmembrane α-helices (M1-M4), with M4 being most distant from the central pore. Residues in this α-helix...

Mutations of the nACh Receptor M4 Helix Reveal Different Phenotypes in Different Expression Systems
The role of the outermost helix (M4) in the pentameric ligand-gated ion channel (pLGIC) family is currently not fully understood. It is known that M4 is important for receptor assembly, possibly via interactions with neighboring...
