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

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 …

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

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 …

The ligand binding domain (LBD) of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor has served as a
prototype for understanding molecular recognition in the family of neurotransmitter‐gated …

The nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor belongs to a superfamily of synaptic ion channels
that open in response to the binding of chemical transmitters. Their mechanism of activation …

Each subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) contains two conserved cysteine
residues, which are known to form a disulfide bond, in the N-terminal extracellular domain …

The nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors and the other neurotransmitter-gated ion
channels have key roles in fast synaptic transmission throughout the nervous system. These …

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

Nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors convert the binding of ACh into the opening of a
cation-conducting channel. New information about the regions of the receptor most …
