Structure, Dynamics, and Ligand Recognition of Human-Specific CHRFAM7A (Dupα7) Nicotinic Receptor Linked to Neuropsychiatric Disorders

Cholinergic α7 nicotinic receptors encoded by the <i>CHRNA7</i> gene are ligand-gated ion channels directly related to memory and immunomodulation. Exons 5–7 in <i>CHRNA7</i> can be duplicated and fused to exons A-E of <i>FAR7a</i>, resulting in a hybrid gene know...
