Pentameric ligand gated ion channels, or Cys-loop receptors,mediate rapid chemical transmission of signals. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is a kind of pentameric ligand gated ion channels. So at first of this page, we introduce some facts of the pentameric ligand gated ion channels, which will help us to understand the structure and function of AChR.
