The recent characterization of an acetylcholine binding protein (AChBP) from the fresh water
snail, Lymnaea stagnalis, shows it to be a structural homolog of the extracellular domain of …

Acetylcholine‐binding protein (AChBP) is a novel protein with high similarity to the
extracellular domain of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. AChBP lacks the …

We generated an acetylcholine-binding protein from Aplysia californica by synthesis of a
cDNA found in existing data bases and its expression in mammalian cell culture. Its subunit …

Rapid neurotransmission is mediated through a superfamily of Cys-loop receptors that
includes the nicotinic acetylcholine (nAChR), γ-aminobutyric acid (GABAA), serotonin (5 …

The N-terminal extracellular region (amino acids 1–209) of the α-subunit of the nicotinic
acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) from Torpedo marmorata electric tissue was expressed as …

We undertook cysteine substitution mutagenesis and fluorophore conjugation at selected
residue positions to map sites of ligand binding and changes in solvent exposure of the …

Acetylcholine-binding protein (AChBP) is a water-soluble protein released from molluscan
glial cells and modulates ACh-mediated synaptic transmission. Acetylcholine-binding …

Acetylcholine binding protein (AChBP) is a novel protein with high similarity to the
extracellular domain of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. It is secreted from glia cells in the …

Revised Manuscript Received March 24, 1993 abstract: The binding of agonists,
antagonists, and the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, eserine, to the nicotinic acetylcholine …

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are well-characterized allosteric transmembrane
proteins involved in the rapid gating of ions elicited by ACh. These receptors belong to the …
