NMR structure of an AChR-peptide (Torpedo Californica, alpha-subunit residues 182-202) in complex with alpha-Bungarotoxin
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 12160749
Function
[NXL1A_BUNMU] Binds with high affinity to muscular and neuronal (alpha-7, alpha-8, and alpha-9) nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Produces peripheral paralysis by blocking neuromuscular transmission at the postsynaptic site. Blocks the extracellular increase of dopamine evoked by nicotine only at the higher dose (4.2 uM).[1] [2] [ACHA_TORMA] After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.
About this Structure
